Getting started with PrintWatch for OctoPrint

This video shows you how to get started with the PrintWatch plugin for OctoPrint.

PrintWatch is a software and API that monitors your 3d prints in real-time using Artificial Intelligence. It uses Machine Learning models to detect defects of various sizes, shapes, colors, materials, lightings, and settings.

In addition to detecting defects in real-time, PrintWatch has an Anomaly Detection System running in the background. The Anomaly Detection System detects and flags anomalies in a printer. The system can detect very subtle issues so the user can schedule maintenance for the printer to reduce downtime. For example, the system may be able to detect there is something slightly wrong with one of the axis of a printer and signals the user to check on the printer.

In order to detect defects in real-time, PrintWatch takes the video stream of a camera fixed onto the printer's print area and runs it through a Machine Learning model that can detect defects of various sizes, shapes, colors, materials, lightings, and settings. When a defect is positively identified, PrintWatch then begins to track the defect to see how it develops. If it is clear that the defect is getting worse, PrintWatch takes action. This tracking system helps prevent any false-positives from triggering action from the software.

PrintWatch runs the computationally heavy Machine Learning models on the cloud meaning any device with internet is able to access the API. Run the software with as little as a Raspberry Pi Zero. PrintWatch is made easily available via OctoPrint as a plugin which can be found here. Additionally, users may create a custom integration of PrintWatch for builds that are not using OctoPrint in less than 5 lines of python code.

A locally running version of PrintWatch is being developed and tested giving the user the ability to run PrintWatch in house without having to connect to the internet. This is best suited for larger print operations or industrial settings where the user may have security concerns. It is built to run on any CUDA enabled devices, including the NVIDIA Jetson platform. The product is extremely scalable and can service any amount of printers.
