1. A vehicle sensor testing system, comprising:
a first plurality of sensor testing targets positioned on a first side of a vehicle at a first distance from the vehicle;
a second plurality of sensor testing targets positioned on a second side of the vehicle at the first distance from the vehicle, the second side opposite the first side;
a first sensor testing target positioned at a second distance from the vehicle, the second distance further from the vehicle than the first distance,
a sixth sensor testing target positioned at a third distance from the vehicle, the third distance different than the first distance and the second distance; and
wherein the first plurality of sensor testing targets comprises a second sensor testing target associated with first camera data for the vehicle and a third sensor testing target associated with first light detection and ranging (LIDAR) data for the vehicle,
wherein the second plurality of sensor testing targets comprises a fourth sensor testing target associated with second camera data for the vehicle and a fifth sensor testing target associated with second LIDAR data for the vehicle, and
wherein the first sensor testing target is associated with at least one of third camera data for the vehicle or third LIDAR data for the vehicle.
