The Challenge

Your Automation Can't See.
Until It's Too Late.

Laboratory automation systems operate with incredible precision—but they're blind to human setup errors. A misplaced tip rack, missing reagent, or improperly oriented plate can cause:

  • Expensive equipment damage

    Robotic arm collisions, bent probes, broken plates

  • Irreplaceable sample loss

    Patient samples, rare compounds, weeks of prep work

  • Critical workflow interruptions

    Failed overnight runs, missed deadlines, delayed studies

The True Cost of a Single Crash

Equipment repair
$15,000 - $50,000
Sample replacement
$5,000 - $25,000
Downtime & delays
$10,000 - $30,000
Total potential cost $30,000 - $100,000+

LabVision pays for itself by preventing just one major incident.

Core Capabilities

Intelligent Visual Detection

LabVision monitors your automation systems and catches problems before they cause failures.

Labware Verification

Automatically verify tip racks, sample tubes, and reagent containers are correctly positioned before operations begin.

Liquid Level Monitoring

Monitor reagent bottle levels in real-time. Get alerts before you run out of critical reagents mid-process.

Barcode Reading

Read barcodes on tubes and plates to ensure correct samples are in correct positions before execution.

Door State Monitoring

Confirm instrument doors are properly closed and systems are ready before starting protocols.

Multi-Camera Dashboard

View live feeds from all connected instruments simultaneously. Monitor your entire lab from one screen.

Historical Capture

Automatic image capture at key workflow points. Complete visual documentation for compliance and troubleshooting.

Real-World Applications

When LabVision Saves the Day

Before Pipetting

Verify tip racks are present and properly positioned before automated liquid handling begins.

Sample Tracking

Read barcodes on tubes and plates to ensure correct samples are in correct positions.

Reagent Management

Monitor reagent bottle levels and alert before they run empty during a run.

Deck Validation

Confirm all required labware is present and correctly oriented before starting.

Process Documentation

Automatic capture of instrument state at key workflow points for compliance.

Remote Monitoring

Enable off-site monitoring of automated runs, reducing overnight staffing needs.
