A glove on the belt, among the trays
Ready-meal line. The trays run in file along the belt, sealed and labelled, on their way to the check station. On the belt, between two trays, a blue nitrile glove is lying. It is not product and it is not a tool from the line: it is a piece of workwear that has fallen. An operator in a white coat is working with his back turned at the far end and has not seen it. The glove moves along with everything else.

What IRIS is
IRIS watches the plant for you.
IRIS looks at the cameras you already have on the plant floor and understands what it sees: a stopped line, someone inside a robotic cell, someone without their safety gear on, jammed parts. When something like that happens, it alerts right away; and whatever can be counted, it counts in numbers. All day long, with no one needing to watch the screen.
You tell it what you need to watch, and IRIS does it.
Here, for example, IRIS spots what doesn't belong among the trays — like a glove — and flags it while it's still in view, with the camera, the time and the video of the moment. That way you know exactly which trays went past and at what minute. With that you decide whether to pull just that tray or the whole batch, and then check that it doesn't happen again.
Works with the cameras you already have. Nothing to replace.

What IRIS understands
What it recognises in this scene
- nitrile glove on the belt
- tray coming up behind
- check station with its signal tower
- operator with his back turned at the far end
- trays already sealed and labelled
What this camera measures
An alert says something is happening. The reading says how much.
- 1Foreign objects seen on the belt
- 35 sTime the object has been in shot
- 26Trays that have gone by since
- 3People in shot
- 09:41Time of the alert
The figures on this screen are an example from the illustration, not any client's measurement.
The rule
You decide once. IRIS applies it always.
If
an object appears on the belt that is neither product nor part of the line
Then
- alert the quality manager with the camera and the time
- save the video from the moment the object entered the shot
- log the exact minute so the affected trays can be narrowed down
The instruction that set it up«Tell me if anything that is not product shows up on the belt: a glove, a piece of plastic or a tool.»
What changes
What changes for whoever answers for the plant
Pulling one tray or pulling a whole batch: fifteen seconds of conveyor separate the two. A glove spotted here is solved with one tray; the same glove in a customer’s warehouse is solved with a phone call that starts with «we have a problem» and a batch off the market. IRIS sees what does not belong in the product stream and alerts while the object is still in sight, with camera, time and video. The quality manager knows which trays went past that point and at what minute.
What people usually ask
Does IRIS guarantee that no foreign body reaches the product?
No, and that is worth saying plainly. A camera sees what is in view: a glove, a piece of plastic, a piece of cardboard or a tool on top of the belt. It does not see what is inside a sealed pack or underneath the product. It is one more layer, alongside the metal detector and the quality checks, and it replaces neither of them.
Does it also detect chemical residues, allergens or bacteria?
No. No camera sees any of that. IRIS detects objects, people, spills and the visible state of a line. An allergen, a chemical residue or a microbiological load is confirmed by a laboratory analysis, and that is how it has to be said. Where an analysis is needed, an analysis is needed.
How does this help narrow down a batch?
Through the time. The alert is stored with the exact minute and the video of that stretch. If product has to be pulled, you know from which moment to which one trays went past that object, instead of blocking a whole shift of production just in case.

Who sees the child who has fallen at the far end of the playground?
14 cases: 13 raise an alert when something happens and one only measures. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
Who is watching a site where there is almost never anybody?
44 cases, and in every one of them IRIS raises an alert when something happens. You see each image as it is, and then with what it understands on top.
And the best part
Nobody covers the night shift:the camera that is already on covers it.
It does not tire, it does not blink and it does not go for coffee. What happens at night is understood just as it would be at midday, and whoever is on duty hears about it while it is happening.
