A method includes dispensing, by a robot within a manufacturing environment using at least one process parameter, one or more linear beads of a liquid adhesive representative of a target complex dispense path onto a surface of a substrate, the linear beads extending along a longitudinal axis and having a bead shape transverse to the longitudinal axis based on the at least one process parameter; and measuring, via a one-dimensional scan by a measuring device positioned within the manufacturing environment, at a plurality of discrete positions along the longitudinal axis of the linear beads, at least one characteristic of the bead shape. |
