Abstract

The present invention includes a robotic system for the enhanced automation, manipulation, and control of electroprocessing in two or three dimensions. In one embodiment, the system includes a sealed chamber devoid of any electrical or conductive components which would interfere with the electrical field and eventual material fabrication, while still allowing for two-dimensional and three-dimensional robot motion. In certain embodiments, the system of the invention produces materials or scaffolds with complex shapes, including materials with ridges, valleys, curves, and the like, which are difficult or impossible to construct using traditional systems.
