Abstract

A warpage amount estimation apparatus that estimates a warpage amount of a substrate includes a processor and a memory. The processor acquires a captured image of one surface of an estimation target substrate. The processor calculates a rate of change in pixel value relating to a substrate radial direction in the captured image of the one surface of the estimation target substrate. The processor estimates a warpage amount of the estimation target substrate based on a correlation obtained in advance between a rate of change in pixel value relating to the substrate radial direction in a captured image of the one surface of a substrate and a warpage amount of the substrate, and on a calculation result of the rate of change which is calculated.
