An electrical circuit inspection method including, for each of a plurality of types of local characteristics, each type occurring at least once within electrical circuitry to be inspected, identifying at least one portion of interest within the electrical circuitry whereat the local characteristic is expected to occur, and inspecting an image of each portion of interest, using an inspection task selected in response to the type of local characteristic expected to occur in the portion of interest.

Apparatus and methods for the inspection of objects

A method for inspecting objects comprising: creating a reference image for a representative object, the reference image comprising an at least partially vectorized first representation of boundaries representing the representative object; acquiring an image of an object under inspection comprising a second representation of boundaries representing the object under inspection; and comparing a location of at least some boundaries in the second representation of boundaries to a location of corresponding boundaries in the at least partially vectorized first representation of boundaries, thereby to identify defects.

A method for inspecting electrical circuits, and a system for carrying out the method, generating a representation of boundaries of elements in an image of an electrical circuit which is under inspection, and analyzing at least some locations of at least some boundaries in the representation of boundaries of elements to identify defects in the electrical circuit.
