Modernizing Scada HMIs

Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems have been around since the 1950s. Their rock-solid performance has been responsible for the streamlining of any industry that needs precise and consistent controls. However, now that everyone carries a superior UI in their pocket, the UIs of many SCADA devices look antiquated. Even the non-designers responsible for running the system expect their SCADA human-machine interface (HMIs) to have polish and sophistication. Having implemented attractive SCADA HMIs for our customers, we believe that Qt is the right tool to build the modern SCADA system.

This whitepaper provides a quick overview on why KDAB finds Qt to be an ideal tool for building today’s modern SCADA systems.
