<p>A method of imaging a fragmentation pattern formed in a single ply of toughened glass having first and second opposing surfaces is disclosed. Initially, a region of the fragmentation pattern is aligned with an image capture device, where the image capture device is arranged in a spaced relationship with the first surface of the ply of glass to capture images of the region when being illuminated in transmission. The region is then illuminated from a first illumination direction and capturing a first image of the region, and subsequently illuminated from at least a second illumination direction and capturing at least a second image of the region. The images are then superimposed to produce a composite image of the region. Preferably four images are obtained. A vehicle glazing optical inspection apparatus for carrying out such a method is also disclosed.</p> |
