- rubidium 9y agoWill/have you open source the hardware for OT2 like you did for OT1 (https://github.com/Opentrons/otone_hardware https://github.com/Opentrons/otone_hardware)?
- willcanine 9y agoyes, we will be open-sourcing the hardware, though not in quite the same way as with the OT-One. All the OT-One parts are off the shelf, 3D printed, or laser-cut, so putting all the files on github makes a lot of sense. But the OT-2 is a lot of custom parts injection molded / extruded / CNC'd by our production team in Shenzhen, and it is a lot harder to both share those designs on our end, and to make anything out of them as a hacker. So we'll be releasing a lot of high fidelity CAD files of the full assembly, as well as deeper dive documentation like this whitepaper on our new pipette designs: https://s3.amazonaws.com/opentrons-landing-img/pipettes/OT-2-Pipette-White-Paper.pdf https://s3.amazonaws.com/opentrons-landing-img/pipettes/OT-2...
- the-dude 9y agoSounds like no.
- willcanine 9y agosorry if my answer is confusing. the short answer is: yes, there will be more (and more in-depth) open-source documentation of OT-2 than with OT-One, and not just limited to dumping everything in a github repo. This is rolling out in the coming weeks as things get finalized.
