Abstract
Disclosed herein is a livery printing system and a method of generating a control path. The system includes a training system having a processor and a memory with code configured to cause the processor to receive a 3D digital model associated with an object; generate simulated control paths, based on the 3D digital model, for actuators of a printing device with printheads, determine a reward value for each one of the simulated control paths based on a simulated physical value, a simulated surface coverage value, or a simulated printing speed value. A value of one simulated control path variable of any of the simulated control paths is different than the value of the simulated control path variable of another simulated control path. One of the simulated control paths is selected based on a comparison between the reward values determined for the simulated control paths.
