ADAS Calibration Support With Multi-Height Cross Beam Mounting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current calibration supports for advanced driver assistant systems (ADAS) have limited lifting and lowering height ranges, leading to high costs when calibrating sensors on different vehicles or with varying functions.
Innovation Solution
A calibration support system featuring a base with a vertical frame assembly comprising a fixed and movable vertical rod, allowing the cross beam to be mounted at different heights, expanding the lifting and lowering range through the use of multiple mounting seats and positions, enabling adaptation to various vehicle configurations.

1Length of moving object
If a calibration support with a single mounting position is used, then the device structure is simple, but the lifting and lowering height range is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The calibration support is divided into multiple mounting seats (first mounting seat and second mounting seat) positioned at different heights on the vertical rod. Each mounting seat can independently hold a cross beam, allowing the system to provide multiple discrete height positions without requiring a completely complex reconfigurable structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The vertical rod serves multiple functions by incorporating both the first mounting seat and the second mounting seat at different heights. This multi-functional design allows a single calibration support device to accommodate sensors with different mounting heights, eliminating the need for multiple separate calibration supports.
2Adaptability or versatility
If calibration supports with different heights are used for different vehicles, then the calibration accuracy is improved, but the cost increases due to replacement needs
Solution Approach 1:
The calibration support incorporates both the first mounting seat and the second mounting seat on the same vertical rod, enabling a single device to adapt to different vehicle configurations and sensor heights. This universal design eliminates the need to replace calibration supports when working with different vehicles or sensor types.
Solution Approach 2:
The calibration support transitions from a static single-height design to a dynamic multi-height configuration. The ability to switch between the first mounting seat and the second mounting seat allows the device to adapt its height dynamically, similar to how different vehicle configurations require different mounting heights.

AI summary
Disclosed are a calibration system (600a) and a calibration support (100a) therefor. The calibration support (100a) comprises: a base (10); a vertical frame assembly (20a), comprising a fixed vertical rod (22) and a movable vertical rod (24), wherein the fixed vertical rod (22) is mounted on the base (10), and the movable vertical rod (24) is capable of moving, within a preset range relative to the base (10), in the length direction of the fixed vertical rod (22); and a cross beam (30a), which is detachably mounted to one of a first mounting seat (35a) and a second mounting seat (36a) which are connected to the movable vertical rod (24), the cross beam (30a) being used for mounting a calibration element, and the calibration element being used for calibrating an advanced driver assistant system of a vehicle. The position of the first mounting seat (35a) is higher than the position of the second mounting seat (36a); and when moving relative to the base (10) in the length direction of the fixed vertical rod (22), the movable vertical rod (24) drives the first mounting seat (35a) and the second mounting seat (36a) to move relative to the base (10) in the length direction of the fixed vertical rod (22).
