HMI vs Dashboards
Developers should learn HMI when working on industrial automation, SCADA systems, or IoT applications that require user interaction with machinery or processes meets developers should learn to create dashboards when building applications that require data visualization, monitoring, or reporting, such as in analytics platforms, devops tools, or business management systems. Here's our take.
HMI
Developers should learn HMI when working on industrial automation, SCADA systems, or IoT applications that require user interaction with machinery or processes
HMI
Nice PickDevelopers should learn HMI when working on industrial automation, SCADA systems, or IoT applications that require user interaction with machinery or processes
Pros
- +It is essential for creating intuitive control panels in factories, power plants, and smart buildings, where real-time monitoring and manual intervention are critical for operational success and hazard prevention
- +Related to: scada, plc-programming
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Dashboards
Developers should learn to create dashboards when building applications that require data visualization, monitoring, or reporting, such as in analytics platforms, DevOps tools, or business management systems
Pros
- +They are essential for providing stakeholders with actionable insights, improving user experience through intuitive data presentation, and supporting operational efficiency by enabling quick access to critical information
- +Related to: data-visualization, business-intelligence
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use HMI if: You want it is essential for creating intuitive control panels in factories, power plants, and smart buildings, where real-time monitoring and manual intervention are critical for operational success and hazard prevention and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Dashboards if: You prioritize they are essential for providing stakeholders with actionable insights, improving user experience through intuitive data presentation, and supporting operational efficiency by enabling quick access to critical information over what HMI offers.
