Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of automated configuration in a bioprocess system (10) and to verify a process defined by a flow path representation. The method comprises the steps of: —capturing one image of the bioprocess system (10) comprising tubing (50) for the fluid communication between units of the bioprocess system (10); —analyzing the captured image to identify the tubing (50) connecting units of the bioprocess system (10); —producing a processed representation from the captured image wherein at least a part of the tubing (50) is identified; and —comparing the processed representation with the flow path representation to verify their functional concordance.
