The overall scale of China's HMI software is affected by the national macro-control, such as the control on industries of electric power, and metallurgical, etc. The future intelligience degree of sensors, data acquisition devices and controllers will become higher and higher, and the demand for real-time data browsing and management is increasing as well. Therefore, the application in these two fields plays a key role in driving the development of HMI software. In a growing period of China's modernization construction, with more and more new projects launched and transformation of infrastructure, HMI software will be applied widely. On the other hand, the transformation of traditional industries and the upgrading and expanding of existing systems will also bring a lot of market opportunities.
