Abstract:
An inspection system inspects points of interest on an item. A two-axis gimbal holds the item and is controlled to adjust an angle of incidence and angle of approach of a line of sight of an imaging device with respect to the point of interest. A Y-axis actuator adjusts a position of the imaging device along a Y-axis of the item, and an X-axis actuator adjusts a position of the imaging device along an X-axis of the item. A controller controls the gimbal, the Y-axis actuator and the X-axis actuator. Upon selecting a point of interest, angle of incidence, and angle of approach, the imaging device displays and/or captures an image, and the image can be inspected by a human inspector or automated inspection system.

Claim (Index 13):
The method of  claim 9  for inspecting a plurality of points of interest on the item, the item having a plurality of objects thereon, the method comprising:\n accessing a first list having the plurality of objects of the item and for each object a position thereof on the item; \n accessing a second list having the plurality of points of interest and for each point of interest an object of the first list on which the point of interest is located, a position on the object of the first list, and a desired angle of incidence and angle of approach for the captured image corresponding to the point of interest; and \n for each point of interest in the second list: \n determining the object of the point of interest from the second list; \n determining the position of the determined object on the item from the first list; \n determining the position of the point of interest on the determined object from the second list; \n determining the position of the point of interest within the system from the determined position of the determined object and the determined position of the point of interest on the determined object; \n determining the desired angle of incidence and angle of approach for the displayed or captured image corresponding to the point of interest from the second list; and \n displaying or capturing an image of the point of interest based on the determined position of the point of interest within the system and the determined desired angle of incidence and angle of approach.
