Abstract
An image capturing method and apparatus for pattern recognition of an electronic device are provided in which an electronic device is moved relative to a vision system for positioning the vision system over a target position on the electronic device, and when the vision system is positioned to view the target position, the vision system is operative to capture an image of the target position while the electronic device is undergoing relative motion with respect to the vision system without stopping. Thus, the time taken for pattern recognition can be significantly reduced.
