UTRGV Externship

VLA-Enabled 3D Printing

A large-format, Voron-based 3D printer with a camera and an ML supervisor that watches each layer, catches defects as they happen, and steps in to correct them.

Role
Software lead — vision and control
Timeline
2026 – 2027
Status
In progress

Outcome

Scoped the full software plan — control loop, defect responses, training data, and a phased build that proves itself on a small printer before moving to the Voron.
