Abstract:
The present disclosure provides various aspects for mobile and automated processing utilizing additive manufacturing. The present disclosure includes methods for the utilization of mobile and automated processing apparatus. In some examples, the mobile additive manufacturing apparatus may perform surface treatments that alter the topography of an existing surface. Other examples may involve the processing of dimensionally large layers which may be joined together to create large pieces with three dimensional shape.

Claim (Index 6):
A method for treating a surface comprising:\n transmitting a control signal to an apparatus wherein the apparatus comprises:\n a controller capable of executing algorithms and providing control signals, \n an additive manufacturing system to deposit a material or combination of materials in prescribed locations on the surface according to a first digital model processed by the controller, \n a vision system capable of scanning the surface and measuring a topography of the surface, \n a drive system operative to transport the additive manufacturing system along the surface, \n a navigation system to determine a location of the additive manufacturing system and guide the drive system, \n power system capable of providing power to operate at least the drive system, navigation system, control system and additive manufacturing system, and \n a composite material element, wherein the composite material element comprises a filler and an adhesive/sealing material, and wherein the composite material element is deposited by the additive manufacturing system; \n depositing a first layer of the material comprising the composite material element on the surface utilizing the apparatus; moving the apparatus to a different location; and depositing a second layer of the material comprising the composite material element on the different location of the surface.
