An endpoint for trusted fabrication, the endpoint including at least one secure controller configured for connection to a wide area network; and at least one untrusted controller configured for local communication, wherein the endpoint is configured for connection to a fabricator and further configured to receive digitally-signed data specifying at least one item for manufacture; verify the digitally-signed data; and direct the fabricator to manufacture the at least one item after verifying the digitally signed data. A method for trusted on-demand manufacturing, the method including receiving, at an endpoint connected to a fabricator, digitally signed data describing at least one item for manufacture; verifying, at the endpoint, the digitally signed data; and manufacturing the at least one item using the digitally signed data after verifying the digitally signed data, wherein the endpoint comprises at least one secure controller and at least one untrusted controller.

Endpoint and protocol for trusted digital manufacturing

Systems and methods for identifying similar three-dimensional (3D) representations of an object. The method includes receiving at an interface a target 3D model and at least one candidate 3D model, executing at least one feature identification procedure to identify a feature of the target 3D model, generating a target feature tensor based on the identified feature of the target 3D model, and executing the at least one feature identification procedure on the candidate 3D model. The method further includes generating a candidate feature tensor based on the identified feature of the candidate 3D model, executing at least one comparison function to compare the target feature tensor and the candidate feature tensor, generating a feature comparison tensor based on the execution of the at least one comparison function, and identifying a degree of similarity between target 3D model and the candidate 3D model based on the feature comparison tensor.

Model isomorphism detection

Reconfigurable interconnection nodes and interface modules are provided. The reconfigurable interconnection node includes a circuit board with a processing unit executing instructions stored on memory to provide operating system software, at least one bus, and at least one bus connector. The reprogrammable interconnection node also includes at least one system interface module operably connected to the circuit board via the at least one bus, wherein the system interface module is configured to communicate with or exchange data with at least a first external system.
