A method, a component, and an electronic device relating to the field of industrial automation technology, particularly relating to the creation of a human machine interface, and are used for automatically creating an HMI of a system. The method for creating an HMI comprises: a first component of a system receives, via an HMI, a first command for creating an HMI for the system; the first component obtains, from each searched and found second component of the system an HMI resource of each of the second components; and the first component creates, on the basis of an HMI resource of the first component and the obtained HMI resource from each of the second components, the HMI for the system. One component of the system collects the HMI resource of another component of the system and creates the HMI for the whole system, providing a method for automatically creating the HMI for the system.

A method (400) for configuring an industrial automation system (1) for internet-of-things accessibility involves a computing device (101) which a) receives (410) a first user input indicative of a functional object (70) representing one or more low-level devices (10) and/or automation devices (20) and/or supervising and production control devices (30). The computing device (101) also b) receives (420) a second user input indicative of a cloud object (72) representing a cloud service provider (3) being external to the industrial automation system (1). The computing device (101) further c) receives (430) a third user input indicative of a user terminal object (74) representing a user terminal device (4) being external to the industrial automation system (1). The computing device (101) then d) causes (440) the cloud service provider (3) to enable communication between the user terminal device (4) and at least one (2) of the devices (10, 20, 30) in the industrial automation system (1) as represented by the functional object (70) via the cloud service provider (3).

A control device for robot arm is provided that comprises: an elastic member comprising a palm portion and a finger portion, the palm portion being coupled to the finger portion, the elastic member being adapted to receive a part of body of a user; a detecting electrode located on an inner surface of the palm portion and configured to detect a surface electromyogram signal of the part of body for identifying a gesture of the part of body of the user; a sensor located on the elastic member for acquiring data relating to a three-dimensional motion of the part of body of the user to identify the three-dimensional motion of the part of body of the user, wherein the surface electromyogram signal and the data relating the three-dimensional motion are adaptable to be used to control the robot arm to perform the gesture and the three-dimensional motion.

A system and a method for accessing at least one automation from an automation store are provided. The method comprises receiving a user input indicative of selection of at least one automation for accessing from a plurality of automations displayed in the automation store, and automatically uploading, in response to receiving the user input, the selected automation to a personal workspace of the user from the automation store. The automations are accessed via one or more Application Programming Interface (API) calls directed to an automation cloud server. Further, the method comprises generating a notification indicative of upload of the selected automation for accessing the automation. The uploaded automation is displayed in a software robot assistant associated with the user. Furthermore, the method comprises displaying the generated notification in an application interface associated with the automation store and displaying the selected automation in the personal workspace in the application interface.

The invention refers to an anomaly processing system suitable for processing a malfunction of a glass forming machine, comprising a malfunction detection unit for detecting a malfunction of the glass forming machine; a presence detection unit for detecting the presence of an operator; and in the event of a detected malfunction, a control unit for controlling the glass forming machine. The anomaly processing system is configured such that, in the event of a malfunction, the control of the glass forming machine by the anomaly processing system is dependent on whether the presence of an operator is detected.
