The China National Institute of Standardization released the "Autonomous Laboratory Standards System: Foresight Framework and Implementation Roadmap Report (2026)," proposing for the first time a foresight framework and a phased implementation roadmap for an autonomous laboratory standards system. The institute is working with universities, research institutions and enterprises to advance standards development around laboratory terminology, equipment interfaces and experimental data. According to the institute, these standards are intended to give different devices and software a common "language" and "rules," facilitating connectivity and collaboration, data sharing and traceability, and reducing duplicate development and construction costs.
