Abstract

A system for inspecting a LIDAR sensor for correcting an error of the LIDAR sensor in a vehicle includes: a centering unit which aligns the vehicle equipped with a communication terminal to match a reference inspection position of the LIDAR sensor; screen panels miniaturized so that an uppermost end point of a LIDAR beam according to an irradiation angle of the LIDAR sensor is projected on a center portion of the screen; a Near Infrared camera which captures the LIDAR beam; and a server which detects an installation error in which the uppermost end points of the LIDAR beams are different, generates a sensor correction value, and transmits the sensor correction value to the LIDAR sensor.
