N2 - Electrohydrodynamic printing (EHDP) is able to precisely manipulate the position, size, and morphology of micro/nanofibers, and fabricate high resolution scaffolds using viscous biopolymer solutions. In order to ensure the reliable printing, it is very necessary to identify EHDP cone status during fabrication. In this work, we used a digital microscopic imaging technique to monitor EHDP cones during printing, with subsequent image processing. A convolutional neural network (CNN) is then developed to classify these EHDP cones. With the help of this monitoring and identification system, scaffolds with diverse triangular, hexagonal and coil-wall microstructures can be fabricated for tissue engineering applications.
