System And Method For Automated Cleaning Of A Sensor Lens

Methods and system for monitoring and evaluating irregularities on a sensor lens of a vehicle sensor are disclosed. One embodiment of a method includes the steps of providing the vehicle with an actuator configured to move the sensor lens and a controller in electronic communication with the actuator, receiving sensor data corresponding to at least one characteristic of a vehicle environment fromthe at least one sensor, evaluating the sensor data to determine if the sensor data indicates an irregularity on the sensor lens of the at least one sensor, classifying the irregularity, storing irregularity data corresponding to the classified irregularity in a non-transient, computer-readable data medium, and, in response to the classified irregularity, automatically controlling the actuator tomove the sensor lens from a first position to a second position. 公开种用于监控和评估车辆传感器的传感器透镜上的不规则性的方法和系统。方法的个实施例包括如下步骤：为车辆提供致动器和控制器，该致动器配置成移动传感器透镜，且该控制器与致动器电通信，从至少个传感器接收与车辆环境的至少个特征相对应的传感器数据，评估传感器数据以确定传感器数据是否指示至少个传感器的传感器透镜上的不规则性，分类该不
