A rover-based integrated laboratory system including autonomous mobile robots is disclosed. Namely, a rover-based integrated laboratory system is disclosed comprising a workspace; a laboratory component within the workspace, the laboratory component being adapted to perform a laboratory technique; a labware component within the workspace that is adapted to be used in the laboratory technique; and a rover component within the workspace that is operatively connected to the laboratory and the labware components, the rover component being an autonomous mobile robot.

An automatic liquid transfer optimization pipetting apparatus and method is disclosed. Namely, a liquid handling apparatus includes a pump supplying a nozzle (i.e., a pipette tip) via a conduit, one or more pressure sensors, and an electronic controller, and wherein the pipette tip is submerged in a liquid. Further, a method of automatic liquid transfer optimization pipetting includes the steps of actuating the pump to move a designated volume of liquid and then allowing the system to settle to a steady state after completion of pump actuation.

A pipette tip for and method of automatically maintaining pipette tip depth in a fluid during a fluid transfer operation is disclosed. The pipette tip includes, for example, two electrodes that run substantially the full length of the pipette tip for measuring the resistance therebetween when submerged in a conductive fluid. A method is provided of automatically maintaining the depth of the pipette tip in a liquid throughout a pipetting operation, as the liquid surface rises or falls in its container, without any prior knowledge of the container geometry.
