We built this demo in collaboration with a clinical pathology lab. It shows a single system doing real lab tasks: tool use, precision manipulation, and high level planning. This was done in one take with no teleop and uses our skills based AI to enable generality while staying deterministic... and reliable for real world workflows. See more here:show more

Thanks for posting the realtime videos too, nice to see all the manipulation details:

@HarderSmart Thanks! It's frustrating how many hand videos are perfectly staged / cut / sped up to look nice, trying to keep it real :P

Oooh gorgeous work. Are those just rubber grip tips or sensors? And is there a wrist here or no wrist and no need bc you're targeting arm mounted hands for reasonably-open-desk work envs not "reach into the hole" fully general hands problem?

Ya exactly, no wrist necessary here since the robot arm can place the hand arbitrarily. A wrist helps with access when you're tied to a human torso / arm morphology like humanoid robots but once you let go of that constraint it's a lot less necessary.

@Josh9817 Parm needs one of these mounted on a backpack

Please turn this into a tabletop kitchen prep bot that can wash and cut food.

I would love that too! If we can find a specific compelling business case for it I'm all for it.

This type of precision is what will soon change lab work for pharmaceutical procedures in the most positive way! 🙌

awesome

Could your robot hand screw together / assemble ikea furniture?

It's getting there:

Why are we adapting robots to work in human spaces? Makes no sense. This could be a fully enclosed line process execution. The end goal is not doing the lab test and getting a result...its to show that humans are worthless and to kill our spirit. Have them nurse a baby next?

If that made sense to do why hasn't it been done already? Fully enclosed mass production lines are not new but there are many reasons why there are still so many human techs out there in the world 🧐

I really love this.

@JulianSaks watchout 👀

Awesome. I'm just in awe at how fast robotics are developing human dexterity.

holy moly. terrifying, great work!

What the heck

Yall at @Ginkgo gonna be automated away, im sorry

Wow! This is super impressive!

UNBELIEVABLE. soon lab technicians will be replaced by robots , it will become harder and harder to compete with the robots as normal people...

Might save the need to import cheap h1-B phds from foreign countries, paid $35k a year in NYC at Columbia, and displace Americans.

the hand is cool but what's the overall point of design; like.... you could just have AI design valving or stuff like that for sample prep automation and have a human just step in at the last second for putting it an incubator/fridge. It's slower because it's a hand.

Kyber Labs just dropped real clinical pathology automation — one take, zero teleop, full tool use + precision planning via skills-based AI Reliable lab workflows unlocked. Staffing shortages and slow research just met their match. The robot lab tech era is HERE

@Ginkgo @jrkelly 👀🤔. More collaboration?

Gonna take your jobs....and your girl.

Amazing stuff, wow

@yacineMTB Not spinning the wrist to unscrew bothers me for some reason

@yacineMTB If it works it works! :P

Why would we force robots to use these tools…

does it play violin ?

Auto Postdoc…

cool stuff, hope this will make health labs easier

"Absolutely incredible! This Kyber Labs robotic hand isn't just a demo, it's a tireless, error-free lab technician that can pipette, vortex, centrifuge, and handle delicate samples for hours on end without fatigue or mistakes. By automating these precise, repetitive workflows in clinical pathology, it directly tackles the massive staffing shortages in labs and paves the way for scalable, high-throughput scientific discovery. Imagine running thousands of experiments around the clock with perfect consistency. Even more exciting: teams are pushing this kind of dexterous automation toward manufacturing natural killer (NK) cells and invariant natural killer T (iNKT), cells powerful immune effectors with huge potential as a near-'cure-all' approach for many cancers.

@Innov_Medicine If this is real and not AI this is amazing. It’s even better because the robot hand can be fully sterilised unlike a human hand — which is not as good even if it’s under a UV hood.

But can it do my blood draw with zero pain?

If you need the system to be more deterministic reach out as I have a Geometric deterministic stack that beats out 2d pixel stacks.

So wonderful to see this technological (r)evolution.

@yacineMTB Wow

Great work! Maybe one of these would encourage us to take our cobot out of storage. I always thought the cobot concept was weak because of the end of arm tooling we have today: limited dexterity and the resulting extra safety requirements they impose.

Make one that folds laundry, that's what people want.
