Differential Optical Water Monitoring

Bio IntelligentMonitoring System

BIMS helps operators, engineers and biologists understand changes in water systems by combining four-channel optical measurements, physics-based interpretation, timeline events and AI-supported explanation.

BIMS does not claim to directly detect biofilm. It identifies persistent additional differential attenuation that cannot be fully explained by bulk-water attenuation alone.

Why BIMS is different

More than a simple light threshold.

BIMS is designed to help users understand meaningful changes in water-system behaviour over time.

Multi-channel monitoring

The system combines several optical signals to support a more robust interpretation than a single raw measurement.

Trend-aware interpretation

BIMS focuses on persistent changes over time instead of isolated fluctuations, reducing the risk of noisy or accidental alerts.

Actionable system status

Operators receive a clear status, timeline and recommendation, while detailed engineering data remains in the secure portal.

How BIMS works

Measure

Four optical channels measure transmitted/reflected light through controlled geometries.

Model

The analysis layer interprets measurement patterns and converts them into a practical system-health status.

Decide

Alarm status is based on validated model behaviour, trend and persistence — not a simple raw threshold.

Explain

AI helps explain the physics-engine result in human language. AI does not determine alarms.
