    Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor that may access a digital model of an item to be fabricated to have a plurality of features, in which the digital model may include a surface. The processor may pack a plurality of digital ellipsoids to intersect the surface of the digital model of the item, in which the plurality of digital ellipsoids are arranged with respect to each other based on a curvature of the surface. The processor may also determine locations on the surface at which the plurality of digital ellipsoids intersect the surface and may set the determined locations as points on the surface at which the plurality of features are to be formed.

    Abstract: Some examples include a method of operating a robot including receiving a task assignment for the robot, initiating a sequence of operations associated with the robot performing the task assignment, sensing an interruption event to the sequence of operations at a first location of the robot, interrupting the sequence of operations, referencing a database of assistant resources, determining available assistant resources from the database of assistant resources, selecting an available assistant resource from the database to assist with resolving the interruption event at the first location, transmitting a communication requesting assistance to the selected available assistant resource to assist at the first location, sensing when the interruption event has been resolved, and resuming the sequence of operations from the interruption event.

    Abstract: Certain examples described herein relate to the preprocessing of object data for the manufacture of a three-dimensional object. In one case, the object data represents at least a first and a second object portion, the first object portion being associated with a first production material composition and the second object portion being associated with a second production material composition. The first and the second object portions may be arranged such that they comprise a contiguous interface. In certain described cases, the object data is modified by modulating the contiguous interface. Said modulating the contiguous interface may comprise modulating data defining at least one of the first and the second object parts such that a portion of at least one of the first and second production material compositions extends into object space occupied by a respective one of the second and first object parts. The resultant modified object data may be used to manufacture the three-dimensional object.
