We are working on the transition to Rpi + Smoothie right now; will keep everyone up to date when we've ported things over fully.
We're also switching to 100% metric and cutting down the number of custom parts needed -- making it easier to make and less expensive!
Platform wise, it is safe to say that we will be on the Rpi + Smoothie, with the Rpi running a Node.js server to handle communication over both bluetooth 4.0 and wifi. We are also making a BLE service for easy integration of Arduino and Node based peripherals; we are starting with a centrifuge that can be used in BioBot automation jobs, but a microscope is also a great thing to integrate. The BLE service/API is still in the very early stages, but I will let you know as it progresses!
Keep us up to date with your progress, and let me know if you have any questions! So excited you're building a BioBot!
Thanks,
Will

Hope things are going well in China.I am preparing to build an opentrons. Some improvements I am planning are to base it on Shapeoko 2, use all metric parts, and really take a look at reducing the 3d printed parts with standard ones. I also want to try R-Pi & Smoothie.I am also building a microscope to attach to it so it would be good to know which way you are going with the technology. People will be reluctant to develop for the platform if you have not decided on the hardware/software platform.
