The method for calibrating a camera and a radar controller for a vehicle according to claim 7, wherein: the specific calculation processes of the roll angle, the pitch angle and the yaw angle are as follows: the target is a rectangle, the geometric elements of the middle two BLOBs in the middle of the target and the geometric elements of the other white BLOBs on the target form strong color contrast, the distances from the white BLOBs in the four corners of the target to the middle two black BLOBs in the X direction and the Z direction are fixed values, the position of the target, the position of the camera, the size of the target, the size of the BLOBs, the interval between the BLOBs, the distance from the camera to the target, and the internal reference and distortion coefficient of the camera are known, the yaw angle is calculated through the geometric relationship, that is, a right triangle is formed by the difference between the actual position of the white BLOB in the leftmost upper corner in the X direction of the target and the theoretical position, and the difference between the actual position of the white BLOB in the rightmost upper corner in the X direction and the theoretical position of the white BLOB in the middle black BLOB position, with the camera as the origin and the above feature BLOBs on the target, in the calculation process, a theoretical formula Tan alpha is used, and the theoretical values of the left Tan alpha and the right Tan alpha are equal; the actual position refers to the position obtained by shooting through a camera, and the theoretical position is the position calculated theoretically; the difference value between the actual position and the theoretical position of the BLOB at the uppermost corner and the lowermost corner in the upper Z direction and the lower Z direction can be calculated by the same method, and the Tan alpha is calculated to further obtain the pitch angle of pitch; calculating ROLL angle according to BLOB of the leftmost actual position and BLOB of the rightmost actual position, calculating an average value alpha of deviation between all columns from the left side to the right side and a theoretical position, calculating a ROLL ROLL angle by utilizing Tan alpha, judging that the ROLL angle, the pitch angle and the yaw angle of the camera in the vehicle do not exceed 3 degrees, judging that the ROLL angle, the pitch angle and the yaw angle do not pass the calibration exceeding 3 degrees, and rechecking assembly or machining errors.
10. The calibration method for the camera and the radar controller for the vehicle according to claim 6, wherein: the distance between the vehicle camera and the calibration plate is controlled to be 3.2 meters plus or minus 0.05 meter; the distance between the radar of the vehicle and the calibration reflecting plate is controlled to be 0.8-2 meters.
