This is exactly where the <strong>AOI analysis in PCB\u2011Investigator<\/strong> delivers maximum value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the integrated <strong>2D and 3D AOI simulations<\/strong>, you can detect early in the design process whether all pins remain visible for automated optical inspection. In the 2D analysis, PCB\u2011Investigator checks the distances of all relevant pins in the expected test direction. If another component is placed too close and blocks the camera\u2019s view, the system alerts you immediately \u2014 including consideration of the real camera angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 3D simulation goes even further: PCB\u2011Investigator evaluates shadow projections of components and marks any parts as potentially non\u2011inspectable if they are obstructed. A clear list highlights all affected components along with detailed distance information, enabling precise design adjustments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The classic <strong>AOI module<\/strong> also generates ultra\u2011high\u2011resolution bitmap graphics of up to <strong>10,000 DPI<\/strong>, ideal for accurate comparison between reference data and scanned images.
