Abstract
An object sensing system includes a radar system including at least one aperture through which a radar signal is transmitted and at least one aperture through which reflected radar signals are received. The sensing system also includes a stereo vision system including a first sensor and a second sensor. The first sensor and the second sensor are separated by an offset. The stereo vision system is mounted to the radar system to form a single assembly. The radar system is positioned in the offset between the first sensor and the second sensor.

14. A method for assembling a radar and stereo vision system, the method comprising the steps of:
-
mounting a radar assembly to an apparatus; adjusting an elevation angle of the radar assembly with respect to the apparatus; mounting a stereo vision assembly to the radar assembly such that the radar assembly is positioned between a first sensor and a second sensor of the stereo vision assembly; adjusting an offset between the first sensor and the second sensor of the stereo vision assembly; and adjusting an elevation angle of the stereo vision assembly with respect to the radar assembly. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
