Opentrons

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.

These robots are used primarily by researchers and scientists interested in DIY biology, but they are increasingly being used by other biologists.[1]
