  • Patent number: 10679335
    Abstract: An electronic component handler includes a region where an electronic component placement unit on which an electronic component is placed is capable of being disposed. A laser light source emits light toward the electronic component placement unit placed in the region. A capturing unit is capable of capturing an image of the electronic component and irradiated with the light. A processor determines the presence or absence of the electronic component in the electronic component placement unit based on the image. In the image, the processor sets a first candidate region and a second candidate region from an electronic component placement region which is a region where the electronic component is placed, determines a selected region by comparing the first candidate region and the second candidate region to each other, and performs the determination based on the selected region.
