Mouser Electronics, a global authorized distributor for the latest electronic components and industrial automation products, is actively exploring technologies that apply natural human behavior and cognitive abilities to interfaces.

Mouser has unveiled the latest issue of its Empowering Innovation Together (EIT) technology series, which explores the unique properties of human-machine interfaces (HMIs) in a variety of devices we use every day, including industrial applications.

As HMIs evolve, engineers are introducing a range of new capabilities by combining cutting-edge technology with intuitive, user-centric design.

In this series, Mouser provides in-depth information on the future technological and societal impact of HMI on everyday devices, vehicles, homes, and the interfaces between them.

Engineers use natural human behavior, abilities, and cognitive processing principles to design interfaces that meet users' needs and preferences.

This EIT series covers automotive design support that meets global expectations, immersive integration of HMI, advanced accessibility features, and more.

'The Tech Between Us'o; In this latest issue, Mouser's Raymond Yin, host of the podcast and director of technical content, sits down with Emergo UL's Allison Strochlic, senior research director, for an in-depth discussion on defining human factors, user-centered design strategies, and design variability across industries.

Additionally, Nicole Johnson, HMI design expert and longtime Rivian design lead, explores how the evolution of HMI and integration with Industry 4.0 and IoT are impacting design considerations.

“The explosion of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) is making HMIs more personalized and intuitive,” said Raymond Yin, director. “As voice and gesture controls replace traditional button-and-dial interfaces, complex technology is becoming more widely accessible to people of all abilities and ages.”

This issue features a range of resources for design engineers, including technical articles, infographics, videos and more that highlight the advancements in immersive technologies through HMI.

This will allow readers to see how to develop custom interface features for the gaming, entertainment, and automotive industries to enable seamless interaction between humans and machines.

Launched in 2015, Mouser’s Empowering Innovation Together (EIT) program is one of the industry’s most recognized electronic component marketing programs. For more information, please visit https://www.mouser.kr/empowering-innovation/ and Mouser’s official Facebook, LinkedIn, X, and YouTube.
