PyLabRobot

소개

PyLabRobot provides a unified Python Software Development Kit for creating autonomous and reproducible laboratory environments. By abstracting hardware complexity, it allows researchers to program liquid handling robots like Hamilton and Opentrons, manage deck layouts, and integrate diverse equipment such as plate readers and centrifuges through a consistent API. Whether simulating protocols in a browser-based 3D environment or controlling physical hardware in real-time, this skill simplifies the transition from manual experimentation to fully automated laboratory operations across Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms.
