Abstract
A system and method allows a user to evaluate the critical optical parameters associated with an imaging device including a CCD array. The system includes a series of optical test targets. Digital images of the optical test targets are captured by the imaging device under test. The stored digital image data is automatically analyzed by a computer program which evaluates the dynamic range, contrast resolution and distortion of the imaging device. The results are compared to predetermined criteria and printed for evaluation by a user. The system provides a means for comparing and qualifying various camera systems to be used for package tracking.
