What is SCADA/HMI?

SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) refers to a system that collects data from sensors and instruments located at remote sites and centrally manages and controls the equipment and conditions. HMI (Human Machine Interface) is a user interface or dashboard that connects a person to the system, machine, or device they are interacting with. SCADA/HMI systems are commonly used in industrial control systems to monitor and control processes in industries like manufacturing, energy, water, and transportation. It provides real-time visibility and control over operational processes.
