8. A method for material processing at a substrate comprising a set of wells distributed across a face of the substrate, the method comprising:
capturing a set of targets at the substrate;
aligning the substrate with an aspiration and delivery subsystem and an imaging subsystem;
with the imaging subsystem, generating an image dataset of contents of the substrate;
generating an analysis characterizing a location of a target of the set of targets at the substrate;
responsive to the analysis, optically guiding movement of a tip of the aspiration and delivery subsystem toward the target; and
performing an aspiration operation with the tip of the aspiration and delivery subsystem to retrieve the target based upon the optically-guided movement.
