1. A method of calibrating a camera system of an autonomous vehicle, comprising:
- identifying, by the processor, a planar object from sensor data generated by a sensor of the autonomous vehicle while the autonomous vehicle is operating;
identifying, by the processor, a pattern of the planar object;
selecting, by the processor, planar points from the pattern of the planar object; and
calibrating, by the processor, the camera system, while the autonomous vehicle is operating, based on the planar points.

Abstract
Systems and method are provided for calibrating a camera system of an autonomous vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: identifying, by the processor, a planar object from sensor data generated by a sensor of the autonomous vehicle while the autonomous vehicle is operating; identifying, by the processor, a pattern of the planar object; selecting, by the processor, planar points from the pattern of the planar object; and calibrating, by the processor, the camera system, while the autonomous vehicle is operating, based on the planar points.
