This paper proposes a method to detect the defects in the region of interest (ROI) based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) after alignment (position and rotation calibration) of a manufacturer’s headlights to determine whether the vehicle headlights are defective. The results were compared with an existing method for distinguishing defects among the previously proposed methods. One hundred original headlight images were acquired for each of the two vehicle types for the purpose of this experiment, and 20,000 high quality images and 20,000 defective images were obtained by applying the position and rotation transformation to the original images. It was found that the method proposed in this paper demonstrated a performance improvement of more than 0.1569 (15.69% on average) as compared to the existing method.
