This presentation will focus on laboratory orchestration using mobile robotics, exploring the practicalities and considerations involved in deploying them into an R&D lab. We will discuss the types of activities that are amenable to automation in this setting and explain why mobile robots are a valuable addition to any lab. We will cover practical considerations, including safety, and delve into how laboratory orchestration with mobile robots can improve productivity and efficiency. Finally, we will discuss future improvements and explore how scientists can work side-by-side with automation to maximize their benefits.
