Abstract

This application discloses a video inspection system for a rework station, which includes multiple image capture devices to capture multiple images or videos of a printed circuit board assembly, a presentation tool to merge the captured images or video into a image or video, and a display device to present the image video. The presentation tool also can augment the captured video of the printed circuit board assembly with information from a layout design of the printed circuit board assembly. The presentation tool can receive a selection of a portion of the layout design or a selection of at least one component in the printed circuit board assembly, and annotate the captured video of the printed circuit board assembly with design data from the layout design that corresponds to the selected portion of the layout design or the selected component in the printed circuit board assembly.
