Opentrons Integrates NVIDIA AI Platforms to Advance Laboratory Robotics

February 11, 2026
Opentrons Labworks has partnered with NVIDIA to integrate its Isaac and Cosmos AI platforms with a global network of 10,000 laboratory robots, enabling physical AI systems that learn from real-world experiments.

Opentrons Labworks is collaborating with NVIDIA to accelerate the development of AI-enabled laboratory robotics, announced in a press release. The integration combines NVIDIA’s Isaac and Cosmos platforms with Opentrons’ network of over 10,000 deployed lab robots to create AI systems that can learn from real-world biological experiments.

The partnership bridges simulation and real laboratory operations by using Opentrons’ standardized robotic systems to generate training data for physical AI models in laboratory environments. NVIDIA’s BioNeMo platform supports the training and deployment of AI models for biological discovery, while Opentrons provides the physical execution layer that connects digital design with experimental validation.

The companies plan to present their collaboration at the SLAS International Conference and Exhibition in Boston in February 2026. The joint session, titled “Opentrons × NVIDIA: Extending Lab Automation into the Era of Physical AI,” will focus on how AI-driven planning and robotic execution can enable autonomous experimentation and continuous learning in scientific research.
