In order to visualize screen content on a data visualization system in the context of monitoring and controlling the functionality of at least one device, which is networked in an installation-related and operational manner to form a device network, in a technical installation, in which each visualization aspect from a set of visualization aspects which is available for the device can be linked to device-specific operating data of device operating data provided by the installation, which device-specific operating data are respectively tied to this visualization aspect.

An automatic configuration system for an operator console wherein one or more operators control and monitor physical facilities, operations or physically dispersed services. The system includes wearable personal identification devices worn by the operators and a control unit for communicating with the wearable personal identification devices in order to detect the presence of one or more operators within a defined control room area. Each personal identification device includes a sensor unit for monitoring operator data, and is adapted to communicate the operator data to the control unit, which is adapted to configure the operator console based on the operator data.

Apparatus and methods for training of robotic devices. A robot may be trained by a user guiding the robot along target trajectory using a control signal. A robot may comprise an adaptive controller. The controller may be configured to generate control commands based on the user guidance, sensory input and a performance measure. A user may interface to the robot via an adaptively configured remote controller. The remote controller may comprise a mobile device, configured by the user in accordance with phenotype and/or operational configuration of the robot. The remote controller may detect changes in the robot phenotype and/or operational configuration. User interface of the remote controller may be reconfigured based on the detected phenotype and/or operational changes.

A machine learning device, which detects an operator, communicates with a database registering information concerning the operator, and learns display of an operation menu based on the information concerning the operator, includes a state observation unit which observes an operation history of the operation menu; and a learning unit which learns the display of the operation menu on the basis of the operation history of the operation menu observed by the state observation unit.
