PyLabRobot is a hardware-agnostic Python SDK that automates liquid handling, plate readers, and lab devices. It provides unified control across Hamilton STAR, Opentrons OT-2, and Tecan EVO platforms, letting you write protocols once and run them on different hardware or in simulation.
Yes. PyLabRobot supports both simulation and physical hardware control, enabling you to develop and validate protocols in simulation before deploying to actual devices like plate readers and liquid handlers.
PyLabRobot controls liquid handlers, plate readers, pumps, shakers, incubators, and other analytical equipment. It manages tip handling, deck layouts, temperature control, and device integration across multiple hardware platforms.
Yes. PyLabRobot provides cross-platform support for Hamilton STAR, Opentrons OT-2, and Tecan EVO, offering a unified Python interface for protocol development regardless of the underlying hardware.
PyLabRobot includes deck management features to define and serialize plate layouts and resources. You can organize and visualize your deck setup before executing liquid handling or plate reading workflows.
Simulation lets you test protocol logic and deck layouts without hardware; physical hardware control executes the same protocol on actual devices. PyLabRobot's state management abstracts this difference, supporting both modes with identical code.
