Computerized apparatus and method for applying graphics to surfaces
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for applying at least one graphic to at least one surface, comprising:
- receiving at least one graphic;
receiving data for mapping the at least one surface;
communicating instructions to a horizontal drive means for moving a pigment application head across a width of a first surface;
communicating instructions to a vertical drive means for moving the pigment application head along a length of the first surface;
communicating instructions to a host drive means for moving the pigment application head toward and away from the first surface; and
communicating instructions to the pigment application head for applying at least one pigment to the first surface.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method for applying at least one graphic to at least one surface comprises receiving at least one graphic, receiving data for mapping the at least one surface, communicating instructions to a horizontal drive means for moving a pigment application head across a width of a first surface, communicating instructions to a vertical drive means for moving the pigment application head along a length of the first surface, communicating instructions to a host drive means for moving the pigment application head toward and away from the first surface, and communicating instructions to the pigment application head for applying at least one pigment to the first surface.

17. A method for applying at least one graphic to a surface, comprising:
-
receiving data for mapping a first surface;
communicating instructions to a first drive means mounted to a scaffolding for moving a pigment application head along a first axis of the first surface;
communicating instructions to a second drive means mounted to a scaffolding for moving the pigment application head along a second axis of the first surface, the second axis being perpendicular to the first axis;
communicating instructions to a third drive means mounted to a scaffolding for moving the pigment application head along a third axis perpendicular to the first surface; and
communicating instructions to the pigment application head for applying at least one pigment to the first surface. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
