Scanning the laboratory plate

Closed this issue · 3 comments

This may possibly be a completely separate project.
The problem is related to XChem laboratory workflow. For some reason the laboratory ends up with large plates loaded with samples of various sizes. The samples need to segregated according to their sizes. It is a manual job at the moment (time consuming, possibly error prone).

I need to find out what exactly is the process that leads to having the various sizes of the samples on one plate.

From meeting with Renjie today:
Preference towards having both the plate and the puck scanner in one project.
Most probably the laboratories which are going to use the puck scanner will have the same problem as we have with sorting the samples on the plates.

The pins are going to be manually color marked by the laboratory team.
This means there will be no need to implement the plate scanner.
