An imaging system includes an imaging device having a holder configured to hold a cell culture plate with a plurality of wells. The imaging device also includes an imaging assembly having a plurality of imaging units, each of which is configured to image one well of the plurality of wells. The imaging system also includes a storage platform in communication with the imaging device configured to receive a plurality of images from the imaging device. The system further includes a computer in communication with the imaging device and the storage platform. The computer is configured to control the imaging device and to display at least one image of the plurality of images.

Remote microscopy for biological sciences

A robotic arm having one or more hybrid (soft-rigid) joints includes a first link, a second link, and a joint interconnecting the first link and the second link, such that the first link is movable relative to the second link along an axis of motion. The joint includes: a socket component coupled to a distal end portion of the second link and a ball component coupled to a proximal end portion of first link, the ball component is configured to rotationally fit within the socket component. The joint also includes a flexible membrane encasing the socket component and the ball component. The robotic arm is controllable using a reinforcement learning algorithm training using a simulation of the robotic arm and optionally, further training in a physical world.
