Abstract

A method for calibrating an optical scanner device implemented by a calibration management apparatus, includes providing instructions to the optical scanner device to scan a calibration surface in a scan pattern based on one or more scan parameters, wherein the one or more scan parameters vary over the scan pattern. The scanning angle for each of the plurality of points in the scan pattern is computed based on an obtained image of a light source emitted from the optical scanner device at a scanning angle for a plurality of points in the scan pattern. A calibration relationship between the computed scanning angles and the corresponding scan parameters is determined for each of the plurality of points in the scan pattern.
