Orbotech Ltd., Yavne, Israel, a manufacturer of flat panel display (FPD) inspection systems, has completed field tests of its LC-3090S, a system for automated optical inspection of FPDs. The company is releasing the LC-3090S as the first in a series of complementary products that comprise its yield enhancement system due for unveiling in 1997. By applying image processing techniques to the inspection results, the system can identify the source of a failure in the production line, eliminating the need for engineer review. The 3090S is based on Orbotech`s patented ellipsometric scanning technology.
