pylabrobot.resources package#

Resources represent on-deck liquid handling equipment, including tip racks, plates and carriers. Many resources defined in the VENUS and Opentrons labware libraries are also defined in this package. In addition, by (optionally subclassing and) instantiating the appropriate classes, you can define your own resources.
