1. A method comprising:
- acquiring, using an electronic device, an image of an object, the image comprising decodable indicia;
decoding, using the electronic device, data from the decodable indicia;
determining indicia dimensions of the decodable indicia; and
determining an initial location of the electronic device relative to the decodable indicia by determining a distance of the electronic device from an origin using decodable indicia dimension data decoded from the decodable indicia.

Abstract
A system and method of determining an initial point for a scan path may include acquiring, using a mobile device, an image of an object, the image comprising decodable indicia. Using the mobile device, data is decoded from the decodable indicia. Indicia dimensions of the decodable indicia are determined based on the data, and image dimensions of the decodable indicia in the image are determined. An initial location of the mobile device is calculated relative to the decodable indicia based on a geometric relationship between the indicia dimensions of the decodable indicia and the image dimensions of the decodable indicia in the image.

12. A method comprising:
- acquiring, using an electronic device, an image of an object, the image comprising decodable indicia;
decoding, using the electronic device, data from the decodable indicia;
determining indicia dimensions of the decodable indicia based on the decoding of the decodable indicia;determining image dimensions of the decodable indicia in the image;
calculating an initial location of the electronic device relative to the decodable indicia based on a geometric relationship ratio between the indicia dimensions of the decodable indicia to the image dimensions of the decodable indicia in the image, andmultiplying-a base distance by the ratio to determine a distance of the electronic device from the decodable indicia. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. An electronic device comprising:
-
a hardware processor configured for; acquiring an image of an object, the image comprising decodable indicia; decoding data from the decodable indicia;
wherein indicia dimensions of the decodable indicia are determined, and image dimensions of the decodable indicia in the image are determined, and wherein an initial location of the electronic device is calculated relative to the decodable indicia based on a geometric relationship between the indicia dimensions of the decodable indicia and the image dimensions of the decodable indicia in the image by;
determining an x distance of the electronic device from an origin using decodable indicia dimension data decoded from the decodable indicia; and
determining a y distance of the electronic device from the origin.
