The robot is operated by [http://parts2.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/User:Meaganl Meagan Lizarazo]. She has optimized protocols for doing BioBrick™ assemblies without the need for gel purification, a process known as 3A assembly, on the robot.

As with standard assembly, the robot can utilize rolling assembly error correction.

Note: As of Spring 2007, assemblies on the robot are working, but final testing continues. More information will be sent to teams as soon as this status changes.
