What US 12,643,243 covers
An AI control system that scans a vehicle in 3D, chooses the right tool head for the surface in front of it, and carries out multi-step surface treatment — film application, wrapping, coating, tint — while detecting defects and correcting in real time.
- 3D vision using stereo cameras and laser grid projectors to build high-resolution surface models
- An automated magazine of interchangeable, AI-controlled tool heads
- Tool heads including a heated flexible spatula, a motorized film tensioning tool, a vibration-assisted squeegee, and knifeless tape for bladeless trimming
- Autonomous defect detection with real-time corrective action
- Adaptation to ambient temperature, humidity, wind and surface contamination
- Mapping human expert demonstration onto robotic joints through imitation learning
Note on scope: This patent claims a system, not a method. It recites multi-step surface treatment operations, but no ordered sequence of steps is claimed.
