There is provided a target installation apparatus. A rod-shaped member is capable of being arranged to extend in a vehicle width direction of the vehicle ahead of or behind the vehicle, and is provided with a target point indicating an installation position of the target. A reference member is formed such that reference points are positioned on left and right outer sides in the vehicle width direction of the vehicle when the reference member is arranged with respect to the vehicle. A connection unit connects the rod-shaped member and the reference member such that a distance from the reference point to the target point in the front-and-rear direction satisfies a predetermined condition.

An ADAS calibration system for calibrating at least one headlamp of a vehicle. The ADAS calibration system including a support; optical measurement device mounted on the support for detecting the distances of two front or rear wheels of the vehicle from the support; a projection surface mounted on the support; and at least one headlamp beam setter. The headlamp beam setter includes a screen configured to show a pattern created by the two-dimensional projection of the light beam emitted by the headlamp and a camera configured to acquire images of the pattern shown on the screen. The ADAS calibration system also includes a control unit configured to receive from the optical measurement device the distances detected and from the camera the images of the pattern and, in response to them, to compute an alignment angle for the headlamp.

The present invention relates to a headlight setting test device comprising a lens, which directs an image of the tested headlight on a monitor, comprising a data memory, which stores the height difference between the contact area of a rear wheel arranged on the side of the relevant headlight being tested and the contact area of the corresponding front wheel or a value corresponding to said height difference, and comprising a correction possibility—taking account of the relevant height difference or value—for the position of the image on the monitor, as a result of which the effect of the height difference on the assessment of the relevant setting of the relevant headlight is able to be compensated for. The invention furthermore relates to a headlight setting station, a headlight setting device and a method for testing a headlight setting.
