Abstract

A stable reference platform is securely anchored within the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle. The positioning and anchoring of the platform is accomplished without removing or engaging the passenger seat, and in a manner which avoids soiling and/or damage to the passenger compartment. The reference platform functions to support devices used to automatically operate the vehicle during testing thereof.
