For the first time in history, a robot imagined itself. It looked at itself from mirrors and made a copy of itself. Of course, robots could make copies of themselves by using CAD drawings, stored inside their memories. But the ability to imagine themselves is fundamental.
The ability to imagine themselves without the 3D images makes it possible that robot can fix their damages autonomously. That thing is necessary when the robot is operating in areas where they need to be extremely independent.
The ability to imagine themself will work with the 3D models of the robot's surface layer and its system. The image tells what the structure should look like. And the cameras and other sensors are telling the real situation. The robot's core can contain sensors that are observing what its skeleton and hydraulics are looking like. And if there is some kind of warp or other damage.
The inner core of the robot can have sensors that are observing the condition of its inner structure. Those sensors can be lasers that are following possible wraps and bricks in the structure of hydraulics or robot's other structures. The system knows, that it needs repair if it sees errors in those structures. And then, it can start to create spare parts by using 3D printer technology.
This ability makes it possible to create systems that are repairing the damages in manned systems. There is a possibility that the 3D printer systems are installed in the structure of the vehicles. And they can repair damages like holes in the core. Or those systems can create any part that the robot needs.
Developers can install self-repairing systems in all kinds of vehicles or other systems. As an example, deep-space probes can repair their structures by using 3D-printer technology.
The system can find needed minerals by using spectrometers. Then they can melt them by using lasers and microwaves. The probe can also use carbon asteroids for creating carbon fiber. The only problem is that melting carbon for fibers requires quite powerful lasers or electromagnetic systems.
But a similar system can make repairings for tanks, armored vehicles, or even flying aircraft. The only thing that this kind of system needs is material that 3D printers can use when they do their jobs.
