Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Software & Services

The Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Software and Services Market Research delivers current market analysis plus a five year market and technology forecast. It is available in multiple editions including worldwide, all regions, and most major countries.

Digitalization Restructures Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Software Market

According to ARC Advisory Group research on the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Software and Services Market, the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) and digital transformation are the principal drivers behind market growth over the next five years. The ongoing need to boost productivity, cut energy use, and expand operational visibility will contribute to market expansion. HMI systems have evolved significantly over the past few decades. Users are collecting more information from manufacturing and analyzing Big Data to optimize processes. With Industrial IoT technology and advancements in analytics, demand for data will increase further, so HMI software will need to handle more data and be better integrated to analytics software to provide information that is more meaningful to the user for making decisions

Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Software Strategic Issues

Human-Machine Interface (HMI)  Market Trends In addition to providing a five-year market forecast, the HMI Software market research report provides detailed quantitative current market data and addresses key strategic issues as follows.

HMI Software Should Support HTML5    

One of the biggest developments in HMI is HTML5. Operating system-independent HTML5 works on nearly every web-enabled device, enabling, for example, HMI software developed on Microsoft Operating Systems to work on Apple’s iOS and Google-Android devices. Many toolkits are available, so little or no HTML programming knowledge is required. Through HTML5 there are hardly any limits to its usage; the graphical user interface is easy to use and it is user friendly.

Implement Industrial IoT and Robust Cybersecurity Alongside HMI Software Solutions    

The Industrial IoT ecosystem will deliver on its promise of added value through increased productivity, predictive maintenance, and reduced as-set downtime. ARC sees a clear business benefit of integrating Industrial IoT as a key component of HMI software. For example, process industry applications can benefit from the remote management of assets to monitor, control, and/or optimize different components of production equipment visualized by HMI software in the Industrial IoT environment.

When one looks at Industrial IoT integration, one should not overlook cybersecurity efforts that must accompany it. Some HMI software suppliers collaborate with cloud providers and partner with cybersecurity companies to provide security and offer proactive security products to monitor and manage cybersecurity risks.

HMI Software Solutions Need to Be Capable of Leveraging the Latest Automation Trends    

The latest technological developments will have a disruptive impact on the automation market in the mid to long term. Developments that will be particularly relevant to HMI software include:

  • Intelligent devices and Industrial IoT
  • Industry 4.0
  • Big Data
  • Cloud computing and services-based solutions
  • Mobility
