We build reliable, high-quality technical solutions for companies and labs. Clear workflows, robust software, and practical engineering — systems that do what they’re supposed to do without getting in the way.

Tube picking

LightPick projecting tube positions on a laboratory rack

Problem

You need quick and reliable access to individual tubes, as part of a workflow or semi-automated storage system.

Our solution

LightPick projects instructions directly onto the rack while the LIMS remains in control of the picking workflow.

Manual pipetting

Problem

You have manual pipetting steps, for which you want to reduce fatigue and errors, while keeping the workflow under control of the LIMS.

Our solution

The same LightPick hardware can project well locations and step-specific instructions directly onto the plate.

Problem

After placing tubes in new racks, you need to update the position in your LIMS, as part of your workflow or a storage system.

Our solution

We are developing a camera-based rack scanner that integrates directly with the LightPick software.

Your laboratory hardware needs to remain operational and exchange data reliably with the LIMS and the rest of the workflow.

Our solution

We support LightPick installations and build custom integrations between hardware, workflow software and LIMS.
