摘要： A lab system identifies a set of steps associated with a protocol for a lab meant to be performed by a robot within the lab using equipment and reagents. The lab system renders, within a user interface, a virtual representation of the lab, a virtual robot, and virtual equipment and reagents. Responsive to operating in a first mode, the lab system simulates the identified set of steps identify virtual positions of the virtual robot within the lab as the virtual robot performs the steps and modifies the virtual representation of the lab to mirror the identified positions of the virtual robot in real-time. Responsive to operating in a second mode, the lab system identifies positions of the robot within the lab as the robot performs the identified set of steps and modifies the virtual representation of the lab to mirror the identified positions of the robot in real-time.

摘要： A lab system calibrates robots and cameras within a lab. The lab system accesses, via a camera within a lab, an image of a robot arm, which comprises a visible tag located on an exterior. The lab system determines a position of the robot arm using position sensors located within the robot arm and determines a location of the camera relative to the robot arm based on the determined position and the location of the tag. The lab system calibrates the camera using the determined location of the camera relative to the robot arm. After calibrating the camera, the lab system accesses, via the camera, a second image of equipment in the lab that comprises a second visible tag on an exterior. The lab system determines, based on a location of the second visible tag within the accessed second image, a location of the equipment relative to the robot arm.

摘要： A lab system configures robots to performs protocols in labs. A lab system generates an interface including a representation of lab systems within a lab associated with a schedule of tasks. Each task associated with a pre-scheduled assay. A lab system receives, from a user via the interface, a workflow path through the lab for an assay. The workflow path is associated with an ordered subset of the lab systems used in the performance of the assay. A lab system converts the received workflow into a set of lab system tasks required to perform the assay. Each of the subset of lab systems is associated with a subset of lab system tasks. A lab system modifies the schedule of tasks to include the set of lab system tasks by optimizing a combination of the set of lab system tasks and the tasks associated with pre-scheduled assays.

摘要： A lab system accesses a first protocol for performance by a first robot in a first lab. The first protocol includes a set of steps, each associated with an operation, reagent, and equipment. For each of one or more steps, the lab system modifies the step by: (1) identifying one or more replacement operations that achieve an equivalent or substantially similar result as a performance of the operation, (2) identifying replacement equipment that operates substantially similarly to the equipment, and/or (3) identifying one or more replacement reagents that, when substituted for the reagent, do not substantially affect the performance of the step. The lab system generates a modified protocol by replacing one or more of the set of steps with the modified steps. The lab system selects a second lab including a second and configures the second robot to perform the modified protocol in the second lab.

摘要： A lab automation system receives an instruction from a user to perform a protocol within a lab via an interface including a graphical representation of the lab. The lab includes a robot and set of equipment rendered within the graphical representation of the lab. The lab automation system identifies an ambiguous term of the instruction and pieces of equipment corresponding to the ambiguous term and modifies the interface to include a predictive text interface element listing the pieces of equipment. Upon a mouseover of a listed piece of equipment within the predictive text interface element, the lab automation system modifies the graphical representation of the lab to highlight the listed piece of equipment corresponding to the mouseover. Upon a selection of the listed piece of equipment within the predictive text interface element, the lab automation system modifies the instruction to include the listed piece of equipment.

摘要： A lab system accesses a first protocol for performance by a first robot in a first lab. The first protocol includes a set of steps, each associated with an operation, reagent, and equipment. For each of one or more steps, the lab system modifies the step by: (1) identifying one or more replacement operations that achieve an equivalent or substantially similar result as a performance of the operation, (2) identifying replacement equipment that operates substantially similarly to the equipment, and/or (3) identifying one or more replacement reagents that, when substituted for the reagent, do not substantially affect the performance of the step. The lab system generates a modified protocol by replacing one or more of the set of steps with the modified steps. The lab system selects a second lab including a second and configures the second robot to perform the modified protocol in the second lab.
