Abstract: A method and apparatus for supplying cables to robots at non-static locations. A base platform is provided, and a work platform is positioned above the base platform for supporting one or more humans. One or more are robots supported on the base platform independently of the work platform. A cable carrier system is positioned above the base platform and underneath the work platform for providing cables to the robots.

Abstract: A method of applying a coating to at least a portion of a surface of a structure using reusable master path rules. The surface of the structure is identified to form surface data. A framework for the surface of the structure is generated using the surface data. The framework comprises a plurality of points. Reusable master path rules are created for a master path connecting the plurality of points. The master path is a continuous line representing a universal route for applying coatings to the surface. The coating is applied to the at least a portion of the surface of the structure using the reusable master path rules.

Abstract: A system for printing an image on a surface may include a robot having at least one arm. A printhead may be mounted to the arm and may be movable by the arm over a surface along a rastering path while printing an image slice on the surface. The image slice may have opposing side edges. The printhead may be configured to print the image slice with an image gradient band along at least one of opposing side edges wherein an image intensity within the image gradient band decreases from an inner portion of the image gradient band toward the side edge.

Abstract: The different advantageous embodiments may provide an apparatus comprising a vision system, a drilling tool, and a system controller. The vision system may be configured to generate data about a number of laser signatures on a surface of a workpiece. The drilling tool may be configured to drill a number of holes in the surface of the workpiece. The system controller may be configured to generate drilling instructions for the drilling tool using the data generated by the vision system.
