What is HMI and Why Use STONE HMI Display?

HMI is changing the way several industries are run now. It is a technology that automates several fields and improves productivity and efficiency on many levels. The merging of humans and machines through HMI is simply the next norm in industrial automation. Interested in finding out more about HMI? Read on to get a general overview of this technology. Also, we’ll introduce STONE HMI displays and why they’re among the leaders in HMI technology worldwide. Defining what HMI is HMI stands for Human Machine Interface. It consists of a dashboard allowing a person to manipulate and interact with a system, device, or machine. HMI is often regarded as the merger of humans and machines for better automation efficiency. HMI is also known as: Operator Interface Terminal (OIT) Man-Machine Interface (MMI) Local Operator Interface (LOI) Operator Terminal (OT) The HMI presents visual information regarding a system to the user. The person, in turn, can operate and control the

Use STONE HMI Make a Smart Home Control System

Project introduction The following tutorial shows you how to use the STONE  STVC050WT-01  touch display module to make a simple home appliance control system. STONE  STVC050WT - 01  the support touch display module is 5 inches, 480 * 272 resolution on the module has been integrated display and touch screen driver needed chips, developers need only on the STONE, the official VGUS design software related UI interface design and generate a programming file downloaded to the STONE display module, and then through a serial port (RS232 / RS485 / TTL) correspond with it, you can perform complex UI design aspects. The process is as follows: The following image shows some parameters of the STONE STVC050WT-01 display module: This display module is just one of many in this line of products. There are many other display modules available in different configurations.  www.stoneitech.com STONE display module development three steps: Designed th

STONE TOOLBox GUI Design Software for Industrial HMI Applications

HMI systems are great because they can present complicated data in a clearer, easily digestible visual way. And this visual nature also creates smoother interactions between the human operator and the machine. No doubt about it – an HMI system with an intuitive graphical interface will surely drive up productivity and improve a business’s efficiency. Now, is it easy to develop an intuitive graphical user interface for a particular HMI system? It all depends on how simple or complicated the system is. However, some tools help engineers create seamless integrations between HMI display solutions, devices, and graphical user interfaces. Enter STONE TOOLBox  – the GUI design software for industrial HMI applications! In this post, we’ll introduce STONE Technologies’ TOOL Box software. We’ll probe deeper into its use in industrial HMI applications. We’ll also have an overview of how TOOL Box is used in developing intuitive and intelligent graphical user interfaces for HMI displa
