KUKA: Web interface for a new Human Machine Interface
Developing a web UI: Inspiring through simplicity
KUKA AG is one of the world's leading suppliers of robotics and plant engineering and a pioneer in Industry 4.0. It was looking for a partner for the new Human Machine Interface (HMI) of the iiQKA.OS operating system. We were able to support KUKA in the development of the web interface for iiQKA.OS. The first pilot customers were impressed by its simplicity.
Changing production landscapes: the challenge
Production landscapes are undergoing dramatic change. KUKA is responding to this challenge with the new iiQKA.OS operating system and the associated Robotic Republic, the KUKA Ecosystem.
Goal
KUKA wants to replace its current control software. The new interface, which is based on web technologies, will be used to control products in the future.
iiQKA.OS can be developed and expanded quickly and intuitively so that challenges in the market can be responded to immediately. At the same time, the operating system ensures intuitive and reliable operation - an important criterion for end users and partners. With the KUKA Ecosystem, KUKA is simplifying the automation life cycle and making robotics accessible to more people. In this way, KUKA is driving forward the democratization of robotics.
Approach
We work according to Scrum and develop various components and modules for the HMI of iiQKA.OS. We benefit from a very good, open and trusting collaboration with our stakeholders. They provide us with extensive support, for example in the acquisition of domain knowledge.
When developing solutions, we are largely free and can rely on the appreciation and constructive criticism of our customers.
