Abstract

In a method and system for acquiring image data for detection of optical codes located on objects carried by a conveyor system, a conveyor system has an imager that includes a sensor and an optics arrangement disposed with respect to the sensor to direct light from a field of view to the sensor so that the sensor outputs image data. A processor system receives image data. The processor system determines a position of an object in a field of view with respect to the conveyor's direction of travel, based upon the determined position of the object in the field of view, and upon a predetermined distance between the object and the optics, defines a region that bounds the image data at least with respect to the direction of travel, and that encompasses a position the object would have in the image data if the object is at the determined position in the field of view and at the distance from the optics, with respect to the object.
