Human Machine Interface (HMI) Software Development

Build Human-Machine Interfaces with Collaboration in Mind

In our tech-oriented society, we interact with advanced technology and machines on a daily basis. While the human aspect of these interactions stays the same, machines can have varied purposes. Human-machine interface (HMI) solutions can be used for simple functions and complex operations, from monitoring a single process to managing industrial automation machines.

HMI software can help streamline your industrial processes by improving data collection and presentation, making it easier for the viewer to navigate and comprehend. If you’re ready to retire outdated processes and access real-time data with HMI software, Geneca is here to help. We’ll work together to address your business needs with our versatile expertise in technologies and focus on the user experience.

Our HMI Development Services

HMI software allows an industrial machine operator to interact with a machine through a graphical user interface (GUI). As HMI solutions become more effective, they can go from controlling a single machine to complex industrial plants.

We partner with manufacturers to optimize industrial processes with secure and reliable HMI solutions. When we partner with our clients, we commit to building systems that will efficiently deliver critical and time-sensitive information in a comprehensive format.

Input Control Systems

Our team will perform workflow analysis to gain insight into your processes and determine the best system to streamline inputs so they can be triggered by a single click rather than a series of actions.

Integration

When you integrate HMI software with your programmable logic controller (PLC) using a cloud-based Web API, you can have remote access to your HMI software. This will also simplify future software integration processes, including Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems.

Multi-Platform HMI Framework

Your company operates in a fast-moving environment, and your HMI software must be able to keep up. We’ll build an HMI system that is functional on multiple screens simultaneously and can be accessed with mobile devices.

Output Monitoring

We build intuitive HMI software that can deliver insights and analyze trends using data-logging technology. You’ll have access to real-time data and valuable insights through pop-ups, comprehensive charts, graphics, and notifications.

Security

Security is a crucial element for any piece of software, and having control over access permissions is likely one of your top priorities. At Geneca, we consider security through every step of the development process. With access control and permission levels, you can closely monitor the data users have access to.

Our HMI Development Process

Here at Geneca, we use a systematic approach to software development using the agile method for every project we work on. Throughout the development process, our team will ensure all components of your HMI software are reliable and work as expected.

Planning

The first step for any project we work on is identifying your business needs and requests. With our team of business leaders and analysts, we are ready to work together to understand your existing or desired workflows and expected interactions. With all the requirements outlined, we’ll plan how to build an HMI solution that meets your needs.

Designing

After gathering all the requirements and understanding your ideal solution, we will create high-fidelity mockups of your human-machine interface software. This allows your team to get a visual representation of the graphical interface, giving you a chance to make any changes to the HMI design before production.

Development

With the design approved, our development team can start HMI programming to build your solution. With a combination of classic and cutting-edge technologies and programming languages, our development team will create reliable, secure, and scalable software.

QA & Testing

All aspects of your HMI software will be thoroughly tested throughout the entire development process. Our team of experts will identify and resolve all bugs or workflow issues before the software is handed off to your team for integration.

Integration & Maintenance

As a custom software development company, we’ll support your deployment efforts, including assisting in training your employees, transitioning from legacy software, and marketing your new system. After your new HMI software solution is live, we’ll still work together to maintain your software through bug resolution and scaling to meet growing needs.

At Geneca, we build more than innovative software solutions. We also build strong, long-lasting partnerships with our clients.
