The Global Market for Human Machine Interface (HMI) Solutions is Projected to Exceed US$5.0 Billion by 2020
Strong Growth in Industrial Automation Drives the
Global Human Machine Interface (HMI) Solutions Market, According to a New
Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
GIA announces the
release of a comprehensive global report on Human Machine Interface (HMI)
Solutions. The global market for Human
Machine Interface (HMI) Solutions is projected to exceed US$5.0 billion by 2020, driven by strong
growth in industrial automation, technological advancements, and robust demand
from end-use industries.
Human machine
interface (HMI) solutions comprises a broad gamut of hardware and software
solutions that can range from input buttons of a phone to control panels used
in the most complex industrial machinery. Popularly known as User Interface
(UI), Man Machine Interface (MMI) or Operator Interface Terminal (OIT), HMI
represents a platform for communication and information exchange between
electromechanical systems/machines and human beings. Modern HMI solutions are
full-fledged ‘enterprise interfaces’ that capture, convey, and control
information flow from the factory floor to all departments/operations in the
client’s enterprise ecosystem. Technology advancements in HMI solutions, over
the years, resulted in significant customization, scalability, interoperability,
and portability across multiple platforms.
Increasing need
for data security and reliable hardware, along with robust demand for efficient
and reliable systems and software, represent major growth drivers in the global
HMI market. Major complementary technologies enabling efficiency improvements
in HMI solutions include voice recognition, gesture recognition, touchless
sensing, touch screen modules, wearable technology, and mobile augmented
reality, among others. The evolution of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
and Industry 4.0 technologies offer a strong business case for smart HMI
solutions. Future growth in the market will be driven by robust demand from
end-use industries such as automotive, oil & gas, packaging, aerospace
& defense, and food & beverage, among others. Other important growth
drivers include increasing industrial demand for sustainability and energy
efficiency, and growing demand for mobility for accessing data from multiple
locations for real-time controlling and monitoring of machinery. Additionally,
growing need to improve manufacturing safety and productivity and increasing
investments in new & advanced infrastructure and power projects are also
driving market growth.
As stated by the
new market research report on Human Machine Interface (HMI) Solutions, the
United States represents the largest market worldwide. Key growth drivers in
developed markets such as the US, Europe and Japan include increasing investments
in industrial automation, rising security concerns, growing demand for
convenient and technically advanced HMI solutions, and stringent energy
efficiency regulations. Asia-Pacific ranks as the fastest growing market with a
CAGR of 8.5% over the analysis period. Untapped possibilities in technology
penetration and growing automation of process monitoring and control in China
and India are expected to benefit demand in the region.
