Original Abstract Submitted

A panel alignment device for a display device includes a stage supporting a panel and including a transmitting portion that includes a first region having a first thickness and a second region having a second thickness greater than the first thickness, a head disposed over the stage and supporting a driving chip, a vision camera which is disposed under the stage, captures a first alignment mark of the panel through the first region, and captures a second alignment mark of the driving chip through the second region, and a controller which controls at least one of a movement and a rotation of each of the stage and the head based on first image information related to a position of the first alignment mark and second image information related to a position of the second alignment mark.
