Described herein are various technologies pertaining to determining whether at least a portion of a sidewall of a glass container has insufficient thickness. A glass container inspection system comprises an infrared camera in communication with a computing system. The infrared camera is configured to capture an infrared image of an exterior of the sidewall of the glass container at long-wavelength infrared as the glass container undergoes a temperature change. The computing system receives the infrared image from the infrared camera and outputs an indication that at least the portion of the sidewall of the glass container has insufficient thickness based on the infrared image. The indication may also be based on a statistical model derived from infrared images of glass containers having sidewalls of known sufficient thickness.
A system that is configured to detect that at least a portion of a sidewall of a glass container has insufficient thickness, the system comprising:
A method for detecting that a portion of a sidewall of a glass container has insufficient thickness, the method comprising:
A glass container inspection system that is configured to detect that a portion of a sidewall of a glass container has insufficient thickness, the glass container inspection system comprising:
