Systems and methods for determining a radar device coverage region
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for determining a coverage region of a radar device, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- generating, by a radar device mounted on a machine, radar data including radar data points representing objects detected by the radar device;
generating, by a lidar device mounted on the machine, lidar data including lidar data points representing objects detected by the lidar device;
calculating a distance between each one of the radar data points and a corresponding one of the lidar data points;
determining an accuracy value for each one of a plurality of sub-regions based on the calculated distances of the radar data points in the sub-region;
determining, by the one or more processors, a radar coverage region for the radar device, the radar coverage region including a group of sub-regions with accuracy values within a predetermined range; and
generating, by the one or more processors, data used to display a graphical representation of the radar coverage region.

Abstract
A system for determining a coverage region of a radar device is disclosed. The system may have one or more processors and a memory. The memory may store instructions that, when executed, enable the one or more processors to receive radar data generated by a radar device and lidar data generated by a lidar device. The radar data may include radar data points representing objects detected by the radar device and the lidar data may include lidar data points representing objects detected by the lidar device. The one or more processors may be further enabled to determine a radar coverage region for the radar device by comparing one or more radar data points to one or more lidar data points, and to generate data used to display a graphical representation of the radar coverage region.
