This AI-powered lab runs itself—and discovers new materials 10x faster

A new technique for self-driving laboratories allows them to collect 10 times more data at record speed, accelerating materials discovery while reducing costs and environmental impact. The dynamic flow system continuously varies chemical mixtures and monitors them in real-time, providing a "movie" of reactions instead of snapshots. This breakthrough enables faster, smarter decisions in materials research, potentially revolutionizing clean energy and sustainable chemical development.
