This invention describes a way for an electronic device to predict how hot different parts of a 3D printed object will get during manufacturing. It uses artificial intelligence, specifically convolutional neural networks, to create a heat map based on the design's material placement. The system can also incorporate real-time thermal images from the printer to refine its predictions.
Why it matters: Since 2017, the computational power and accessibility of cloud-based AI platforms have dramatically increased, making the training and deployment of complex convolutional neural networks for real-time manufacturing predictions far more feasible and efficient.
