What Changes When Moving from 96 to 384 and 1536-Well Microplates? Laboratory automation is moving toward higher density within the same footprint. As screening and genomics workflows transition from 96-well plates to 384-well and 1536-well formats, each camera frame captures each captured image contains hundreds of small, closely spaced 2D...

In high-throughput laboratory automation, efficiency is rarely lost to major system failures. Instead, it declines incrementally, millisecond by millisecond. Barcode decoding latency is a common source of hidden efficiency loss. Once decoding performance is considered “acceptable,” its impact on motion control and system timing is often overlooked. Even minor delays...

Why a 1% Read Failure Rate Creates Outsized Manual Work and Throughput Loss In high-throughput laboratory automation, most systems are built for standard scenarios, and a 99% barcode read success rate is often deemed sufficient. At scale, this assumption fails. In a facility processing 50,000 samples daily, a 1% failure...

Every day, laboratories around the world receive hundreds or even thousands of samples which demand sophisticated solutions that go beyond simple identification. Imagine the logistical challenge of accurately sorting these huge volume of sample tubes based on various criteria – test type, department, destination, or priority. Manual sorting is not...

Automated Batch Barcode Scanning for Vial Inventory Management Working in a lab requires precision and efficiency. Keeping track of vial inventories is crucial but time-consuming. Manual scanning one-by-one simply can’t keep up with the pace of modern laboratory operations. This is where Dynamsoft’s barcode scanning solutions come in — enabling...
