    Abstract: A system is described for inspecting a container having a top surface using light reflections and positional data. The system comprises a radiation source arranged such that the light beam projects radiation onto the top surface, wherein the radiation radiates along the outer edge of the container; a sensor, wherein the radiation is collected by the sensor reflected from the container using positional data, wherein the positional data is used to create a reference plane of the top of the top surface; and a processor operatively connected to the sensor, the processor integrates the positional data to detect defects in the container and creates a reference plane of a top surface of the container, wherein sensor captures the positional data of the container as the container moves on the conveyor; and the positional data is integrated using software to produce a 3D topographical map of the container.

    Abstract: Method and apparatus for measuring the liquid fill level in bottles while the bottles are still within the turret section of the filler system. A source of focused light, such as that generated by a laser, is directed onto a series of targets positioned on the turret behind the bottles. The beam is directed back through the bottle neck and detected by a remote camera. The detected image varies depending upon whether the bottle was underfi
