Claim 5:
6. A method comprising:
receiving image data generated by a camera associated with a vehicle during a first test, the image data comprising an image depicting a test surface associated with a sensor of the vehicle;
determining, based at least in part on the image data, an accumulation of a substance on the test surface;
generating, based at least in part on the accumulation of the substance, control data indicating at least a portion of a control surface on which a material that is associated with the accumulation is to be placed;
generating the control surface including the material at the portion of the control surface;
disposing the control surface relative to a test sensor such that the material at the portion of the control surface impacts sensor data generated by the test sensor;
receiving, based at least in part on conducting a second test in which the control surface is disposed proximate the test sensor, sensor data from the test sensor; and
determining a level of degradation of the sensor data caused by the control surface.
