Abstract
In an approach to improve additive manufacturing embodiments receive, by a sensor set, data associated with an object or a predetermined area, and retrieve, by a knowledge corpus, historic data associated with the object or the predetermined area. Further, embodiments identify a defect on or within an object based on an identified difference in the received data and the historic data and identify, by the sensor set, a target area on the object to repair the defect. Additionally, embodiments, create, by a context-aware robotic system, a physical support around the target area, and repair, by an additive manufacturing mechanism and the physical support, the defect by applying three-dimensional printing-based rectification to the defect.
