Automated photo-aligned liquid crystal elastomer film fabrication with a low-tech, home-built robotic workstation

Abstract Laboratory procedures are often considered so unique that automating them is not economically justified – time and resources invested in designing, building and calibrating the machines are unlikely to pay off. This is particularly true if cheap labour force (technicians or students) is ava...
