Abstract

The glass bottle inspection method and apparatus performs successively producing differential images from original images successively captured from the glass bottle to be inspected while the glass bottle is being rotated about its own axis, comparing the differential images with the template to judge whether the glass bottle is defect-free or not, and combining all the differential images obtained from the glass bottle to be inspected in one inspection cycle to produce a differential composite image, using the differential composite image as a provisional template when all the differential images obtained from the glass bottle in one inspection cycle are judged as representing a defect-free glass bottle, and correcting the template using the provisional template.
