Can a Figma UI become a real embedded HMI?
2 hours ago • 0 commentsThis test starts from a UI definition rather than a hardware platform.
Figma can tell us the screen structure, layout, navigation and visual assets. It does not define the machine logic, I/O, CAN/GPIO behavior, startup state, boot-time target, temperature range, annual volume or lifecycle requirements.
The first engineering task is to identify those missing pieces and turn the design into an engineering definition. What should each control do? What data reaches each screen? What happens before the machine is ready, or when a connection fails? Which performance and hardware constraints must the interface satisfy?
The OpenHMI experiment will use that definition to move toward LVGL/UIBuilder and real ArtInChip D133 hardware. We will document the assumptions, integration decisions and measured results as the work progresses.
Have a Figma UI, sketch or existing prototype with a screen? Share it for evaluation. An incomplete idea is a useful starting point.
