To avoid some of these errors to happen by detecting them and stop the process of a wrong printing saving time, money and resources also with the potential to be scalable to an industrial process. To achieve this a proposed proof of concept of a semiautomatic 3D printer aided with a robot and a vision system to work autonomously with the least human interaction needed and the ability to do process monitoring to ensure quality in pieces and remove mistaken pieces while in the process save resources, this is achieved by Implementation of a synchrony routine in an arduino with programming, putting together decision making and pick and place operations to reduce human interaction. The main contribution is the implementation and architecture to achieve the synchrony of the three technologies 3D printer, vision system, and a robot arm working together to do a continuous process with inspection in real time in a 3D printer.TextoengopenAccesshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0INGENIERÍA Y TECNOLOGÍA::CIENCIAS TECNOLÓGICAS::TECNOLOGÍA DE LOS ORDENADORES::INTELIGENCIA ARTIFICIALScienceTesis de maestríahttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-1748-36303D printingRobot arm aided processProcess monitoringVision systemSemiautonomous process967428
