Week 3 HW: Labd Automation

Generate an artistic design using the GUI at opentrons-art.rcdonovan.com

I wanted to draw Punch, the famous baby Japanese macaque from the zoo in Japan. The GUI created an approximate outline which I used as a base and added more details of different colour on top.

This was the end result

This was the settings with the coordinates.

Using the coordinates from the GUI, follow the instructions in the HTGAA26 Opentrons Colab to write your own Python script which draws your design using the Opentrons

1. Find and describe a published paper that utilizes the Opentrons or an automation tool to achieve novel biological applications.

2. Write a description about what you intend to do with automation tools for your final project. You may include example pseudocode, Python scripts, 3D printed holders, a plan for how to use Ginkgo Nebula, and more. You may reference this week’s recitation slide deck for lab automation details.

3. While your description/project idea doesn’t need to be set in stone, we would like to see core details of what you would automate. This is due at the start of lecture and does not need to be tested on the Opentrons yet.
