THE AI ANGLE
Evaluating experimental data and controlling autonomous screening processes

Researchers built a self-driving lab platform to automate semiconductor ink synthesis and thin-film characterization. Robots handle material experiments inside a protective atmosphere to compare multiple variants with precision. The system generates large datasets for upcoming AI evaluation and autonomous screening.
