What it covers
An AI control system that scans a vehicle in 3D, chooses the right tool head for the surface in front of it, and carries out multi-step surface treatment — film application, wrapping, coating, tint — while detecting defects and correcting in real time.
- 3D vision using stereo cameras and laser grid projectors to build high-resolution surface models
- An automated magazine of interchangeable, AI-controlled tool heads
- Tool heads including a heated flexible spatula, a motorized film tensioning tool, a vibration-assisted squeegee, and knifeless tape for bladeless trimming
- Autonomous defect detection with real-time corrective action
- Adaptation to ambient temperature, humidity, wind and surface contamination
- Mapping human expert demonstration onto robotic joints through imitation learning
Note on scope: This patent claims a system, not a method. It recites multi-step surface treatment operations, but no ordered sequence of steps is claimed.

AutoWrap Robotics: AI-led platform for automated vehicle treatment using humanoid robots
- Granted
- 9 June 2026
- Filed
- 11 July 2025
- Claims
- 15
- Independent claims
- Two independent claims — claim 1 (system) and claim 12 (method).
- Assignee
- AutoWrap Robotics LLC
- Inventor
- Raoul Shah
What it covers
A system and a method for installing and servicing vehicle lighting — fiber-optic starlight headliners, LED strips, headlight and taillight assemblies — using robots that build a 3D model of the vehicle, plan the work, and place components with tactile feedback.
- A 3D digital model of the vehicle interior and exterior, built at fixed facilities or on-site at customer premises
- Compensation for variable ambient lighting, temperature and ground irregularities
- An installation plan generated from a desired lighting pattern or a diagnostic task
- Precision placement maintaining the integrity of headliner fabric, plastic trim and wiring harnesses
- Autonomous wiring routing and interfacing with vehicle diagnostics for functional verification
- Real-time quality control where findings automatically update the machine-learning models
Note on scope: Claim 12 is a genuine ordered method — the only claimed ordered sequence in the robotics portfolio.

AutoWrap Robotics: humanoid AI for autonomous vehicle service centers
- Granted
- 30 December 2025
- Filed
- 10 July 2025
- Claims
- 20
- Independent claims
- Three independent claims — system, method, and computer-readable medium.
- Assignee
- AutoWrap Robotics LLC
- Inventor
- Raoul Shah
What it covers
An AI system for running a vehicle service facility: reading vehicle diagnostics, generating explainable repair strategies, dispatching work to robots with assigned roles, maintaining a digital twin of both the vehicle and the facility, and keeping customers informed.
- Multi-modal sensor data and vehicle diagnostics, including EV and software-defined vehicles from model year 2005 onwards
- Explainable-AI repair strategies
- A digital twin of both the vehicle and the service center
- Humanoid roles spanning check-in, payment, diagnostics, repair, logistics and security
- Force and tactile sensing for fine manipulation, including high-voltage EV components under specialized safety protocols
- Asset-utilization optimization across staging areas and bays, including triaging previously unfinished projects

AI-driven dermatological imaging and predictive simulation platform for pigment and lesion reduction
- Granted
- 30 December 2025
- Filed
- 23 August 2025
- Claims
- 17
- Independent claims
- Independent claim 1 (computer-implemented method), plus a system claim.
- Assignee
- AutoWrap Robotics LLC
- Inventor
- Raoul Shah
What it covers
A method for tracking how a pigment pattern in skin changes across treatment sessions — normalizing photographs taken under different lighting, quantifying the change, and forecasting a completion date with a confidence weighting.
- Normalizing images for environmental lighting using deformable registration against stable epidermal micro-landmarks
- Conditioning on capture metadata — focal length, exposure time, ISO, white balance, illumination intensity
- Quantifying pigment-pattern change with a machine-learning model
- Forecasting future change by non-linear regression, including auto-detected Fitzpatrick skin type
- Displaying a progress metric and a confidence-weighted completion date from a patient-specific curve
Note on scope: A dermatological imaging patent, in a different industry from the three robotics patents. FADE MY INK® is a trademark, not the title of this patent.

How to read this page
The patents referenced here are assigned to AutoWrap Robotics LLC, a separate company founded by the same inventor. SpaceShip Wraps does not own them.
These are issued United States patents. No foreign counterparts are claimed.
Every vehicle SpaceShip Wraps installs is wrapped by a person, by hand. The technology below is what AutoWrap Robotics is building — it is not what wraps your car.
Any demonstration of the robotic systems is a simulation illustrating the disclosed inventions, not a physical working prototype.
Claim summaries are plain-language descriptions of claimed subject matter, not the claim text. The granted patents govern. Claim scope and validity are legal questions for qualified counsel.
