This episode's questions. Comment below!
1. What is your best tip for HMI design?
2. Which of the 3 + bonus was your favorite tip?
1- Design for Operators, managers, and engineers separately. they need/want different things.
2- The colors, it can easily ruin your efforts. The customer won't like it and neither of you knows why.
The second tip "Use familiar UI Elements" is really great. You can borrow things from other industries, like e-commerce for example.
Include key stakeholders into your design process. Their buy-in on how the HMI functions is crucial to a successful project. It could save you from having to completely start over as well.
I like the use of color tip most and I agree that most all industrial UIs are like the one you presented.
SymbolFactory should also be used sparingly!!
Love it! Great tip. Including stakeholders EARLY in the design and as a continuous feedback cycle is absolutely critical!
I agree with that. We also have to take into account that a lot of users in the industrial machinery environment are used to these ugly HMI designs that @Cory points at and they probably want the same. At least that happened to me a couple of times before.
@10:39 - I work for automation industry and have seen HMI screens like this still being used on machines and the main issue updating these UIs is resistance from operators who are use to those old screens.
Hey man, great video, thanks! Do you have any thoughts on using a threejs model as an HMI SCADA type control?
just hire a web UX designer lol.
