Expanding Horizons: Graypaw Is Bringing Cognitive Vision to Closed Process Vessels

Graypaw is actively expanding its Grayvisions cognitive vision platform into new frontiers of bioprocessing — launching a new deployment with another top-tier global biopharmaceutical company (initially at one of its manufacturing sites in Pennsylvania): closed, non-glass process vessels under camera vision.

Following successful rollouts in upstream bioreactor environments, Graypaw is now applying its technology to a new class of equipment: sealed, small-scale process vessels used in downstream or auxiliary stages of biomanufacturing. These vessels — non-glass, enclosed, and potentially pressure-rated — require highly reliable, non-invasive visual monitoring.

Equipped with LJ Star camera systems, the new deployment enables:

• Continuous, real-time foam level tracking

• Smart alerts for excessive foam buildup — protecting downstream systems

• Smart alerts when foam has cleared, signaling readiness to proceed to the next production phase

• Full-featured operator interface with overlays, graphs, history, and real-time metrics

• Local, on-device compute — no cloud dependency

• Future-ready integration via OPC UA

This dual-mode alerting — flagging both risk conditions and process readiness — positions Grayvisions as a proactive intelligence layer within the production cycle.

By adapting to these broader process vessel environments, Graypaw continues to extend the reach of cognitive vision across critical decision points in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
