Opentrons

Company page: Opentrons Wikipedia

Opentrons Labworks, Inc. (or Opentrons) is a biotechnology company that manufactures liquid handling robots that use open-source software, which at one point used open-source hardware but no longer does.

NB: The Opentrons Labware Library is a wonderful resource to see what Opentrons offers in terms of resources.

We can automatically convert Opentrons resources to PLR resources using two methods in pylabrobot.resources.opentrons:

• pylabrobot.resources.opentrons.load.load_opentrons_resource(): loading from a file

• pylabrobot.resources.opentrons.load.load_shared_opentrons_resource(): load from https://pypi.org/project/opentrons-shared-data/ (https://github.com/Opentrons/opentrons/tree/edge/shared-data)

In addition, we provide convenience methods for loading many resources (see below).
