Real-Time Lab Instrument Monitoring System

Challenge

Ridgeview Instruments, makers of the LigandTracer, needed to extend their instrument control software with modern remote monitoring capabilities. Researchers required the ability to track critical experiments from outside the lab, minimize manual interventions, and receive immediate alerts for experimental errors through an intuitive, cloud-connected dashboard.

Solution

We delivered a comprehensive remote monitoring solution through close collaboration with Ridgeview's R&D team. Our implementation included designing and developing a cloud-connected dashboard with real-time experiment visualization, replicating LigandTracer's signature curve-based data display for seamless user experience, implementing advanced plotting systems with zooming capabilities and data reduction algorithms, integrating secure access controls and intelligent notification systems for experiment tracking, and building a scalable backend architecture supporting data dispatch, session management, and multi-instrument connectivity.

Results

• Enabled secure remote access to live instrument data and experiment monitoring
• Improved research efficiency through real-time alerts and comprehensive session insights
• Built scalable foundation supporting future remote features and instrument integrations
• Reduced laboratory downtime through proactive error detection and notification systems
