Abstract
Empty component locations are detected on an assembled circuit board where the component locations are marked with spots of a fluorescent substance before assembly. The circuit board is exposed to stimulating radiation by a radiation source causing luminescence from the spots of fluorescent substance on which the stimulating radiation is impinged. The circuit board is then examined for the luminescence to determine whether the components are between the spots and the radiation source.
