The primary sensors are mounted to a custom designed detachable aluminum sensor masted above the main deck. The mast provides an excellent field of view for the cameras and the Velodyne and ensures that their position does not change relative to the PinPoint's localization solution. This consideration is particularly important given that the sensor mast will not fit through the garage door into the team's lab and must be removed after every test.
