Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. An object detection and classification verification system for a vehicle, the verification system comprising:
a projection system configured to project visible light onto a wall surface in front of the vehicle, wherein the wall surface is substantially perpendicular to a ground surface beneath the vehicle; and
a controller of the vehicle in communication with the projection system, the controller being configured to verify a performance of an object detection and classification routine by:
commanding the projection system to project one of a plurality of three-dimensional (3D) scenes onto the wall surface in front of the vehicle, wherein each of the plurality of 3D scenes is pre-captured at a known distance and comprises at least one known object;
performing the object detection and classification routine on the projected 3D scene to generate a set of results;
comparing the set of results to a set of expected results associated with the projected 3D scene; and
based on the comparing, determining whether the performance of the object detection and classification routine satisfies a predetermined threshold metric.
