Grid Dynamics Releases Visual Process Monitoring Starter Kit for Manufacturing and Logistics Applications

Key Takeaways: The Visual Process Monitoring starter kit enables companies to rapidly develop edge video analytics solutions for in-facility safety monitoring, labor productivity analysis and optimization, order packaging verification, and other use cases leveraging vision-language models (VLMs). Incorporating Grid Dynamics' extensive experience in delivering successful visual analytics projects, this starter kit addresses the growing demand for edge visual analytics in manufacturing and logistics applications, enabling the solution to be deployed efficiently and at scale.

Grid Dynamics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: GDYN) (Grid Dynamics), a leading provider of technology consulting, platform and product engineering, AI, and digital engagement services, today announced a starter kit for Visual Process Monitoring. This framework is designed to accelerate the development of visual monitoring workflows that track moving objects, such as vehicles and people, continuously evaluate the semantics of their behavior and interactions, and automatically trigger alerts or generate reports. The solution aims to significantly reduce the cost and complexity of visual analytics projects for Grid Dynamics’ clients by replacing the traditional computer vision development approach with a VLM-centric design.

Visual process analytics on the edge is a powerful and versatile tool that can address a broad range of problems, including shelf space and store layout optimization in retail, workforce management in restaurants, safety monitoring in warehouses, and quality control in manufacturing operations. Traditionally, developing computer vision solutions has been a complex and expensive process, requiring the collection of large amounts of training data, manual labeling, and the design of custom models—turning every new use case or monitoring rule into an expensive engineering project. Grid Dynamics’ new Visual Process Monitoring starter kit helps companies overcome these challenges by providing a VLM-based framework that allows them to create various monitoring workflows in a zero-shot fashion.

"We see edge visual analytics becoming increasingly widespread and versatile, and we work with clients on applying it to a broad variety of manufacturing, packaging, and warehousing use cases," said Ilya Katsov, VP of Technology at Grid Dynamics. "This trend is significantly accelerated by VLMs that reduce the implementation complexity while increasing affordability of edge GPU devices. This new starter kit enables us to prototype and deliver visual analytics solutions even faster, and we expect it to be in demand among clients seeking improvements in efficiency, quality, and safety."

The Visual Process Monitoring starter kit extends Grid Dynamics’ portfolio of accelerators for smart manufacturing and supply chain, and the company aims to accelerate the delivery of transformative AI projects in these domains.
