Method and system of photolithography to form conformal circuits on curved surfaces

A system, comprising:

• a light projector to project frames each having data of a different circuit pattern slice of a circuit pattern image and to project a focal plane having a contour line formed from one of the circuit pattern slices;
• a substrate mount to hold a substrate of an object at a position to intersect the focal plane;
• memory;
• and
• processor circuitry forming at least one processor communicatively coupled to the memory and the light projector, wherein the processor is arranged to operate by:
• generating a patterned light-sensitive material comprising:
• projecting at least one temporal sequence of the frames from the light projector and toward at least one light-sensitive material over the substrate so that each frame forms one of the contour lines on the at least one light-sensitive material, and
• moving at least one of the light projector, the substrate, or both after an individual frame projection so that each contour line in the same temporal sequence is formed at a different location on the light-sensitive material;
• and
• generating a conductive circuit over the substrate comprising using the patterned light-sensitive material to pattern at least one conductive material over the substrate.

At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to operate by:

• receiving data of a circuit pattern image having multiple circuit pattern slice images and arranged to be used to project the circuit pattern slice images at a light projector aimed toward at least one light-sensitive material over a substrate of an object;
• generating a patterned light-sensitive material comprising:
• projecting at least one temporal sequence of frame projections, wherein each frame within a single temporal sequence has a different one of the circuit pattern slice images and projected so that each circuit pattern slice image forms a contour line on the at least one light-sensitive material, and
• moving the substrate, the light projector, or both after an individual frame projection so that each contour line in the same temporal sequence is formed at a different location on the at least one light-sensitive material;
• and
• generating a conductive circuit on the substrate comprising using the patterned light-sensitive material to pattern at least one conductive material over the substrate.
