Abstract
A standoff for an optical imaging system includes a base, with a target plate coupled to the base and positioned along a central trajectory of the base. The target plate includes a scan window positioned along the central trajectory of the base. The scan window serves to align the optical imaging system with an optical mark on an object. A machine readable code can be positioned on the target plate, the machine readable code including optical imaging system setting information to be read by the optical imaging system.
