Patent ID: 11623400

Abstract:
A modular light for removably attaching to a bio-printer robot end effector, where the light includes: an annular modular light ring housing with an annular opening for receiving the end effector of the bioprinting robot; the housing substantially surrounding a dispensing tip of the end effector; a power supply interface to receive electrical power from the end effector; a plurality of LEDs positioned annularly around the end effector within the annular modular light ring housing, where the plurality of LEDs are spaced in at least two annular rows, where each of the at least two annular rows are at a unique elevational position within the annular modular light ring housing with respect to a light output plane of the annular modular light ring housing; the LEDs are in electrical communication with the power supply interface; and a controller communicatively coupled with the LEDs and the power supply interface.
