HMI Development Service

We develop all things HMI — from basic machine command panels and data visualization software to complex cloud-based HMI ecosystems with advanced multimedia and networking capabilities. Softeq covers all aspects of HMI development: hardware and software, graphical user interfaces, and web and cloud infrastructure, which altogether translate into seamless user experience and high system operability.

Hardware Design

We analyze your business requirements to design device architecture, select the most fitting hardware components, and equip them with custom firmware. This way, we build a turnkey deployable system that is both rugged and allows for smooth graphical software integration.We also plug graphical software solutions into existing hardware systems.

Software Development

Softeq designs system-level HMI software and HMI apps that are operator and user-friendly. We develop HMI software solutions for wearables, device monitoring and control, industrial equipment management, centralized data acquisition, and enterprise-level analytics.

HMI Infrastructure and Ecosystem

We help design, build, and upgrade both in-house and web or cloud-based HMI systems to ensure fast data collection and create secure data storage environments.

Healthcare HMIs

We design HMI healthcare systems to measure vital signals, improve care efficiency, ensure patient comfort, and maintain provider operations. Softeq designs and develops:

Medical device interfaces
Interfaces for healthcare and well-being wearable devices
HMI solutions for patient monitoring
Components and HMI software for robotic surgery systems
Machine-regulated workflow solutions
Digital health record systems

Industrial HMI Systems

We help industrial manufacturers optimize production monitoring and equipment maintenance while preventing system failures with consistent, multi-platform, and user-friendly HMIs.

Our industrial HMI development expertise includes industrial control panels and machinery controls, data visualization panels for equipment components, touchscreens, keypads, switches, and HMI software. At Softeq, we build industrial HMI solutions for:

Equipment control and calibration
Hardware and sensors diagnostics
Industrial robotics systems
Industrial system diagnostics
Efficient equipment maintenance
Collection, digitalization, analysis, and storage of machinery data

Automotive HMIs

Our team develops in-vehicle entertainment and information solutions with audio/video interfaces, control elements like touch screen displays, button panels, speech recognition capabilities, and more. Our automotive HMI development expertise spans:

Infotainment operating system (Android, Linux, RTOS, etc.) customization
Software solutions for digital signal processing (DSP) and graphic processing units (GPUs)
Connectivity solutions for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, etc.
HMI app development and integration

We also draw on our AR/VR, Machine Learning, and sensor development expertise to help automotive OEMs optimize driver experiences and vehicle navigation while enhancing safety. We develop:

Apps that augment the driving experience via automatic pedestrian/vehicle detection, road sign/traffic light source recognition, as well as in-car human presence detection
Software for instrument clusters
Navigation app development and integration

Embedded software for stretch wrapping machines with a touchscreen display. Softeq created an HMI to help equipment operators interface with stretch wrappers and re-engineered the embedded software that the equipment was running on.

Case study

HMI and Embedded Software for Stretch Wrapping Machines

Lantech, a company that manufactures stretch wrapping machines for warehouses, planned to release a new generation of stretch wrappers with touchscreen displays. The company turned to Softeq to design a front-end solution that would help equipment operators interface with their stretch wrappers, and provide project rescue services to their firmware team.

Show Case Study

A multimedia unit for electric vehicles that interfaces with multiple displays. The unit features a Safety OS for displaying critical information, incorporates a high-end audio amplifier, and is compliant with ISO 26262 ASIL-B requirements.

FPGA Design Services - What you get-ML Capabilities

Shorter Time-to-Market with Build Accelerator

Softeq’s proprietary framework acts as a development accelerator enabling faster development of HMI/UIs for any kind of device using standard tools while delivering a more concise, higher-quality code.

Mobile app development - What you get - Top-Level User Experience

Multiplatform Code Portability

The Softeq framework helps develop multi-platform code portable to a variety of CPUs, hardware components, and OSs. This provides consistency: users can manage the necessary machinery units remotely through a web-based HMI on their laptop, desktop, or smart device in a similar manner as they would through the local component display or a monitor mounted on the target itself.

Cloud app development - What you get - Efficiency and Cost Reduction

Low-Capacity CPU Compatibility

We have optimized the embedded framework to work with very resource-efficient, underpowered, and inexpensive processing units. This is particularly important for companies seeking lower procurement prices, as saving several dollars on each CPU will result in substantial savings during batch production.

UX/UI Design Approach

To create operator and user-friendly graphical interfaces, we utilize a five-stage Design Thinking framework:

Empathize–observing, engaging with customers to understand their experiences, motivations, general and specific objectives
Define–user data collection, shaping a design framework document

Ideate–sketching, UX cards, User Persona design, projecting user journeys, development of interactive ergonomic prototypes
Prototype–graphic design charter, device type adaptation, pictogramme creation, graphic presentation, and styles
Test–qualitative and quantitative usability tests, user interviews, A/B testing, reports, and plans for interface adjustments
