Abstract

Adaptive Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) are used to improve the interaction between users and interfaces by taking into account the state of the user and the system. This paper describes a solution that enables the generation of adaptable HMIs applying web application technologies in the Android Operating Systems. The solution is based on an Adaptive Human Machine Interface Engine, and in this article one of the main components, called HMI Builder, is presented. The HMI Builder uses different technologies to retrieve information from the system in order to generate adaptive elements in the HMI. This approach is a flexible solution that can be incorporated in most of the Android devices in the market; including smartphones and tablets. The proposed approach was implemented and tested in a manufacturing scenario by creating adaptive interfaces for different types of user based on the user roles, tasks, the state of the system and the context. Finally, the technical implementation details, result and future work are presented and discussed.
