Abstract:
An automatic detection method and an automatic detection system for detecting any crack on wafer edges are provided. The automatic detection method includes the following steps. Several wafer images of several wafers are obtained. The wafer images are integrated to create a templet image. Each of the wafer images is compared with the templet image to obtain a differential image. Each of the differential images is binarized. Each of the differential images which are binarized is de-noised. Whether each of the differential images has an edge crack is detected according to pattern of each of the differential images which are de-noised.
