Abstract
An electronic component handler includes a region where an electronic component placing unit on which an electronic component is placed is capable of being disposed. A transport unit includes a first hand and a second hand for holding and transporting the electronic component. A light irradiation unit is capable of emitting light toward the electronic component placing unit and is capable of adjusting an emitting direction of the light. A capturing unit is capable of capturing an image of the electronic component placing unit irradiated with the light via a space between the first hand and the second hand. A control unit performs determination processing about the presence or absence of the electronic component in the electronic component placing unit based on the image captured by the capturing unit.
