This is a short exercise to provide hands-on experience with Artificial Labs and its tools.
By completing this exercise, you will gain experience with:
- Adding and customizing furniture, equipment, and labware
- Using the Related Equipments section of the Equipment Library
- Interacting with model components, such as moving the carousel and robot
- Multi-copying components
- Renaming models in the Digital Twin
- Navigating the lab scene with the camera
If you want to revisit these concepts, please review How to Build a Lab.
Instructions
The goal of this exercise is to create a similar Lab to the one shown below.
To do this, you will need to add the following models to the lab:
- A Liquid Handler (of your choosing) on a table
- Build the deck to include carriers for a tip rack and reagent trough (These will be used in the Assistants exercise later)
- A HighRes Bio SteriStore with the following storage configuration and each stacker is renamed with the position number:
- Stackers 1-10: Capacity 10
- Stackers 11-14: Capacity 5
- A table with a PF400 robot with a black microplate in its gripper
- Biohazard waste represented by a custom object
Hints:
- Use the Labs Toolbar to add and edit models
- The "Related Equipment" section shows compatible models of the selected model
- Camera navigation hints are written in the Lab Scene
- To make multiple copies of the same asset, hold Option. Then, drag your mouse to where you want to paste the copy and hit the spacebar.
