Zusammenfassung:A system includes processing circuitry and a drone that includes a marking mount that receives a marking device, a motion guide that provides a sliding framework for a reciprocating motion of the marking mount, and a shock absorption sub-assembly positioned between the marking mount and the motion guide. Control logic of the drone is configured to navigate, based on navigation instructions received from the processing circuitry, the drone to an area associated with a misapplication of a tape as applied to a substrate or a substrate defect, such that a distal tip of the marking device makes contact with the area associated with the tape misapplication or the substrate defect, while activating the shock absorption sub-assembly to at least partially absorb a shock caused by the contact between the distal tip of the marking device and the area associated with the tape misapplication or the substrate defect.
