IIoT: Driving a new wave of HMI and SCADA
As human-machine interfaces (HMI) and SCADA technologies continue to evolve, IIoT device integration is becoming increasingly important, according to an article from Automation World.
“We’re seeing widespread use of smart sensors, energy meters and wireless transmitters feeding data directly into HMI/SCADA platforms," Emerson's Silvia Gonzalez told Automation World. "It’s a shift that is fundamentally transforming how operations are monitored, visualized and optimized.”
Industry professionals from Emerson, Yokogawa, Siemens and more weighed in on the impact of IIoT on HMI and SCADA technologies, citing their value in amassing large amounts of data and critical cloud connection as a few reasons for its importance.
