Robotic additive manufacturing has the potential to replace traditional production techniques with more flexible, capable and efficient methods. However, this potential has not yet been realized due to the intrinsic physical limitations of extruders. Thus improved speed and efficiency lies in coordi
We present a new algorithm for coordinating the motion of multiple extruders to increase throughput in fused filament fabrication (FFF)/fused deposition modeling (FDM) additive manufacturing. Platforms based on FFF are commonly available and advantageous to several industries, but are limited by slo…
Gaussian processes (GPs) enable a probabilistic approach to important estimation and classification tasks that arise in robotics applications. Meanwhile, most GP-based methods are often prohibitively slow, thereby posing a substantial barrier to practical applications. Existing "sparse" methods to s…
