ABSTRACT:
An object detecting system mounted on a conveyance such as a vehicle having a laser radar as an object detector mounted on the vehicle at a position offset from the vehicle longitudinal center line, for adjusting in a factory the radar mounting position in a software manner by utilizing a computer program. A reflective target is placed ahead of the vehicle on the line extending from the vehicle longitudinal center line at a position relatively close to the vehicle in the factory. The central axis of the transmitted beam is first aimed at the target reflector such that the axis is made equal to the direction of the target reflector, and is changed by an angle of offset such that the axis is aligned with an inherently desired direction which is parallel to the vehicle longitudinal center line. With this, the radar mounting position is precisely adjusted to the desired position using a relatively short range (site) for testing and adjustment, in a software manner by utilizing a computer program, improving the efficiency of radar mounting position adjustment operation.
