ROBOTS AND ROBOTIC SYSTEMS FOR FLUID HANDLING AND TRANSPORT OF BIODEVICES AND APPLICATIONS OF SAME

A robot for transporting a biodevice from one place to another place, comprising a body for carrying the biodevice; a driving assembly for driving the body in omnidirectional motion; a sensing unit for sensing at least a position and orientation of the body; and a control unit coupled to the driving assembly and the sensing unit for generating one or more control signals based on at least the sensed position and orientation of the body to drive the driving assembly so as to move the body to a desired place and to arrive with the correct orientation.
