摘要

An inspection apparatus determines a location of a target object within a volume. The inspection apparatus includes a visual inspection device that determines a location of at least one reference point within the volume with respect to the visual inspection device. The visual inspection device further detects a location of the target object with respect to the visual inspection device. The visual inspection device utilizes a location of the target object with respect to the at least one reference point to determine a position of the target object within the volume. A method of locating the target object with the inspection apparatus is also provided.
