What is a HMI PC?

An HMI PC (Human-Machine Interface Personal Computer) is an industrial computer, typically in the form of a Panel PC, that is designed to act as a central operator interface, blending traditional HMI functions (monitoring, control, data logging) with the powerful processing and versatility of a PC, often running SCADA software for complex visualization and management of industrial processes, providing an operator interface terminal to view and control machinery graphically. While standard HMI displays are dedicated devices, an HMI PC offers enhanced capabilities like running multiple applications, cloud connectivity, and greater customization for advanced automation in manufacturing, energy, and other industries.
