1. A method, comprising:
causing alignment of a collimator with an image sensor mounted to a vehicle;
responsive to causing the alignment of the collimator with the image sensor, receiving, using at least one processor, sensor data from the image sensor aligned with the collimator;
determining that performance data associated with the image sensor does not satisfy a performance threshold associated with the image sensor based at least in part on the sensor data received from the image sensor aligned with the collimator;
determining an image sensor alert associated with the image sensor based at least in part on determining that the performance data does not satisfy the performance threshold; and
routing the image sensor alert.
