The Trilobio Clinic team designed and prototyped a precision analytical balance to weigh up to eight simultaneously dispensed fluid samples on a modular scalable robotics system named Trilobot. This balance will automate the validation of dispensed multichannel pipette volumes. The team is working on the electromechanical design for this analytical balance. This project will enhance the efficiency and reliability of biology lab workflows.
