Design & Development Services

HUMAN-MACHINE INTERFACE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT

FCC GROUP Engineered Technologies offers complete engineering support for all our HMI solutions. Our Engineering Team provides full design and development of any human-machine interface product from User Interface (UI) design, screen specification, and HMI software.
Our HMI Capabilities Include:

  • Mechanical and Electrical Design
  • LCD/Touch Screen Integration
  • High Tech Light Guide Films
  • Interface(HMI) Software and Firmware Development
  • Electronic Human Machine Control Panel
  • Mechanical and Electrical Design
  • Our in-house engineering teams will work directly with you to solve any design challenges you may face.
  • High Tech Light Guide Films

Using a thin back lighting panel enables clean and isolated visual feedback without adding cost. Back lighting panels can drive lower cost while still providing high durability and easy assembly. Alternate color or icon lighting provides visual verification of the selection and switch operation. It provides a visual cue and operation feedback in packages that are rugged, cleanable, and weatherproof.

Interface Software and Firmware Development
Part of the function of a human-machine interface is to communicate operating conditions of the device to trigger an alert or a response from the operator. Not only are we capable of designing and building hardware but we can design and incorporate operating software into the interface.
Software and Firmware Examples:

User Menu Displays. Everything from start-up/shut down menus, operating instructions or graphical interface commands.

Managing device inputs to trigger events. Including:

  • Serial Input/Output Interface
  • Bluetooth and Wireless Communications
  • SD Card and USB Communication
  • Pressure/Flow Switches
  • TDS Meters
  • Pressure Transducers
  • Temperature Sensors
  • Voltage/Current Sensors
  • Battery Status
  • Temperature/Humidity Sensors
  • Valves and Mechanical Switches

Data logging/Storage – Being able to store historical data within the device in order to retrieve at a later date for warranty or repair purposes.

Customize the software and displays to provide up to 24 different languages on the display with only one model number. The user can select the language upon startup.

Managing firmware updates over time to keep your devices current with new technology.

The experience we’ve had with different Micro Controller platforms allows us to design and customize the most cost effective solutions for all your needs.

SMART HUMAN-MACHINE INTERFACES

Several new technologies are changing how companies think, design, and integrate user interface controls into their devices. These new technologies along with the continued push towards all devices being connected using internet of things (IoT) technologies will take operational efficiency, performance and productivity to a level not yet achieved and not imagined a decade ago. They will now provide almost unlimited control, monitoring, and visibility, giving users and manufacturers more data, and more analytic power to improve actionable decision making. Many of these technologies have existed for years, but now thanks in part to advancements in wireless capabilities and cost of manufacturing, among other things, they are now taking hold in industrial, medical, and commercial applications.
SMART Human-Machine Interface for Medical Device

Definition of Traditional HMI’s

The SMART Human-Machine Interface (HMI) is the part of the machine that handles human interaction. The SMART HMI in a device is the user interface that provides control, monitoring, and visualization between a human and a device. This Includes taking inputs from sensors inside the device to trigger action.

Different Platforms & Types of HMI’s

The definition of HMI’s, Panel PCs and User Interfaces in general have changed over the last decade, however there are a few distinct differences.
