Verification

I removed the verify tag after I've added some external links. Please let me know if those are not sufficient and what kind of other information is needed to fully remove the said tags. Thanks. <font color="lighgray">[--J</font><font color="gray">C--]</font> 06:15, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Let's be unbiased

I've put back the information where it says about elimination of AOI in the later process of product LCM. This is the industry standard to use AOI as an introductory with the early product life cycle. Also I am not an advocate of ICT, but manufacturing industry in general will mostly (if not all) accept ICT as permanent primary solution for PCB test. If taking the statement out again, because a person has biased feeling for AOI test or has personal interest for AOI (works for a company that sells AOI instruments/fixtures/etc), we would ask them to pause for a while and rethink before deleting that item. Please post your concerns and reason here too. Thanks. |--JC--| 02:01, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Updated Information

I'd like to see in this article (and in Machine Vision) an update on speeds, capacities and applications. The current article should include applications inspecting banknote, securities and other forms of compliance printing (more than just circuit boards et al). Further, Optical Inspection has expanded to test for LCH (Luminence, Chroma and Hue) variation in realtime. Machine Vision also had a request for commercial references, much as can be seen in the article Virtualization. This would prove tremendously helpful especially as this technology is only now capable of approaching needed application speeds in print, packaging and substrate manufacture. Please post your advisements. Many thanks, Nhbaldwin (talk) 23:35, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Terminology

This article uses terms such as 'tombstoning' and 'billboarding' which need to be defined. LorenzoB (talk) 04:16, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Typical Vendors

Please research who are typical vendors in more detail and add these, or remove this section completely as it appears to promote specific companies. Also, the detail is incorrect. For instance Teradyne left the AOI business in 2004. Hence to include them in the typical vendors section is incorrect. There are many typical vendors which could be listed who are not noted such as:

Mirtec
Yestech
Machine Vision Products
Viscom
VI Technology
Aleader
TRI (Test Research Institute)
Parmi
Koh Young
SONY
Retinae
