The 2007 Frost & Sullivan Product Innovation Award in the European human machine interface (HMI) market is presented to InduSoft in recognition of its revolutionary InduSoft Web Studio, particularly its latest version-InduSoft Web Studio v6.1. This, along with a broad portfolio of high-quality HMI/SCADA products, has underscored InduSoft's significant market presence." The latest version of InduSoft Web Studio v6.1 SP3 is a powerful and well integrated foundation for developing HMI and SCADA applications that support all Microsoft operating systems-including the latest-Microsoft Vista," notes Frost & Sullivan Research Associate Shibapriya Saha.
"In the automation and control industry, this capability ensures that it is the only HMI/SCADA solution that runs on almost every type of hardware." InduSoft Web Studio is structured on a PC-based development system. Therefore, it helps users to easily configure real-time embedded controls. It also enables users to employ a single development software system that can efficiently operate on varied systems, such as remote data acquisition and control room HMI/SCADA systems, as well as historical and database systems.
This, in turn, allows users to develop on a single platform and run on any supported Microsoft platform, simplifying and accelerating the automation of their whole production process.InduSoft Web Studio is a very potent collection of rapid application configuration environment (RACE) tools that offer both Web and wireless integration available in the European HMI market. It can be used to configure native applications and Web-based HMI/SCADA applications - with no other tools required. "InduSoft Web Studio is also the richest Web-based HMI/SCADA package available on the market in terms of its features," comments Saha.
"In addition to enabling the display of HMI/SCADA screens in a standard Web browser, it allows interactions with applications on a standard Web browser, assuming that the user has the right security privileges." Apart from InduSoft Web Studio, the company offers an exceptional range of high-performance, feature-rich HMI/SCADA software products for developing applications in industrial, instrumentation and embedded systems. These include InduSoft CEView, InduSoft RealTime Performance Management, Import Tool for Panel Builder, and Import Tool for PanelMate. All these products are enabled with InduSoft's pioneering HMI/SCADA technologies and are equipped for efficient data acquisition from various real-world devices in real-time.
They also boast highly efficient architecture and enable the latest standards and technology in the wireless, diskless, mobile computing arenas. "These products also use the most common and popular Web browsers for displaying and accessing real-time, dynamic and animated graphic screens, trends, recipes and reports," states Saha. "Furthermore, they support XML, integrating seamlessly with databases and the Microsoft Office Suite while enabling simplified compatibility with corporate and business applications."
