Seeing ahead through a state-of-the-art review of visual perception and predictive intelligence for collaborative robots

Abstract The rate at which collaborative robots (cobots) are evolving from isolated, pre-programmed manipulators into collaborative partners that operate productively alongside humans, other robots, and machines is accelerating rapidly. Advances in computer vision is enabling cob...

ALPS: An Automated Liquid Pipetting System for Spheroid Handling in Nanoliter Droplets

Cell spheroids provide physiologically relevant 3D cell models, but the manual handling of individual spheroids remains challenging, particularly in miniaturized, high-density formats such as droplet microarrays (DMAs). Here, we present ALPS, an automated liquid-handling platform...

Data Synthesis Improves 3D Myotube Instance Segmentation

Abstract Myotubes are multinucleated muscle fibers serving as key model systems for studying muscle physiology, disease mechanisms, and drug responses. Mechanistic studies and drug screening thereby rely on quantitative morphological readouts such as diameter, length, and branchi...

SANE – Schema-aware Natural-language Evaluation of Biological Data

Abstract High-throughput microscopy generates large, structured datasets capturing cellular responses to pharmacological perturbations, but accessing these datasets typically requires SQL expertise. Large language models offer a naturallanguage alternative, yet their tendency to...
