Zusammenfassung:	In a method for replicating performance of an automated visual inspection (AVI) station, a mimic AVI station that performs one or more AVI functions of the AVI station is constructed. One or more container images are captured by an imaging system of the AVI station while a container is illuminated by an illumination system of the AVI station, and one or more additional container images are captured by a mimic imaging system of the mimic AVI station. The method also includes identifying, by one or more processors, one or more differences between the one or more additional container images and the one or more container images, generating, by the one or more processors, a visual indication of the difference(s) and/or one or more suggestions for modifying the mimic AVI station, and modifying the mimic AVI station based on the visual indication.
