Printed object correction via computer vision

A camera watches a 3D printer as it builds an object, layer by layer, comparing what it sees to the original design. If it detects any mistakes, the system automatically adjusts the printer's settings to correct the errors for future prints, ensuring the final object is accurate. The claims specifically describe using a camera attached to the printer head to capture and combine multiple images during the printing process.

Why it matters: Real-time computer vision and AI for anomaly detection have advanced significantly since 2017, making the core detection and correction logic more robust and accessible. This reduces the specialized software development burden.
