Artificial announced a strategic technology collaboration to develop an integrated and comprehensive software automation platform for Thermo Fisher’s standardized COVID-19 Testing Platform. Under the terms of the agreement, Thermo Fisher Scientific secured early access to Artificial’s software, aLab Suite, to enhance the capabilities of their standardized COVID-19 Testing Platform. Artificial’s aLab Suite is intended to seamlessly integrate with Thermo Scientific’s Momentum workflow software and robotics hardware to enable laboratories to quickly scale COVID-19 testing to volumes needed for reducing the spread of disease and restoring economies and communities. As part of this collaboration, Artificial will provide access to aLab Suite to enable the dynamic scheduling of protocol runs with batch optimizations to maximize the number of tests run. In addition, manual protocol steps will be coordinated with the Momentum process by using digital assistants that provide users step-by-step guidance. Thermo Fisher Scientific will also provide feedback on aLab Suite functionalities and capabilities to contribute to future product requirements and system specifications.
