Abstract: A system and a method for generating instructions for an automated machine adapted for performing a given process on an object are disclosed. The method comprises providing process data representative of the given process to perform; acquiring 3D geometrical data of a portion of the object; generating a model of the portion of the object using the acquired 3D geometrical data; generating a set of instructions for the automated machine according to the generated model and the process data; and providing the set of instructions to the automated machine for performing the given process on the portion of the object. The method may be adapted for cost-effectively automating the manufacturing of a unitary object while taking into consideration actual deformations of the object prior to generate the instructions for the automated machine.
