Making Opentron Art

Here is the opentron script from the previous year, written in google colab.

for this year, I want to do something new, I decide to go with the picture of 2D projected lorenz attractor. In perfect scenario, I wish to write the script to plots 2D lorenz attractor and command opentron to draw this frame-by-frame. sadly, I don’t have enough time for that, so I use this image I found hene to generate the pattern.

Post Lab Questions

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

(ii) 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.
