Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“In traditional lab environments, human operators work through out the lab to perform protocols withequipment and reagents. For example, a hum an operator may mix reagents together, manually calibratea robot arm, and opera te a pipettor robot to handle liquids. However, in some instances, a lab may include components (e.g., equipment, robots, etc.) that can be automated to perform protocols.“Though automating protocols may streamline the necessary processes, automation in lab environmentsposes unique challenges. For one, the language used by opera tors or for robots and equipment in labs isnot standardized, so communications about protocols for a lab system to perform may be difficult for thelab system to correctly parse. Secondly, operators in labs may not be versed in how to use a lab system forautomation given their specific scientific backgrounds. Further , although some of robots and equipmentmay be capable of easy integration into the lab system for automation, not all robots or equipment maybe configured for automation and may lack the appropriate interfaces for the lab system to commun icatewith. Lastly, each of a range of robots and equipment connected to the lab system may have its owninterface for communicating, and the lab system may nee d to determine how to communicate with eachdifferent interface, which may incre ase latency.”
