Case Studies

Sector: Process Industrials

Partner: Proconex

Scope: Cognitive vision module for verifying tubing connections on transfer panels via mobile devices and smart glasses. Integrated into the ProofCheck SOP system.

Impact:

• Automated validation of panel configuration against active procedures

• Eliminated human error in a high-risk, high-cost step

• Enabled hands-free inspection via RealWear smart glasses

• Reduced verification time and improved compliance traceability

Sector: Upstream Bioprocessing

Partner: Proconex

Scope: Real-time foam detection in lab and production-scale bioreactors using edge-based cognitive vision with multi-camera support.

Impact: 

• Automated alerts for critical foam formation events

• Early intervention to prevent batch failure and process deviation

• Full visual traceability through video-linked event history

• Scalable across multiple reactors with minimal hardware footprint

Sector: Aseptic Manufacturing

Partner: Proconex

Scope: Real-time AI-based inspection of welds on disposable bioreactor bags and fluid connectors, integrated into manual welding stations.

Impact:

• Accurate, operator-friendly defect detection at the point of fabrication

• Increased first-pass yield and reduced downstream failures

• Live visual feedback and tablet-based UI for welders

• Remote supervisor review and full video-linked QA traceability

Sector: Sterile Operations / GMP Compliance

Partner: Proconex

Scope: Vision-based monitoring of operator behavior inside Biosafety Cabinets (BSCs) to detect SOP violations and support cleanroom QA.

Current Phase:

• Multi-camera pilot running in simulated GMP environment

• Focus on procedural compliance, object tracking, and motion validation

Target outcomes: early deviation detection, audit-ready records, and hands-free supervisor review
