北美產業用電子監視器・操作界面設備・軟體需求分析：第6版（第1卷 監視器及電信業者中介終端設備

Abstract

VDC Research Group is pleased to announce the release of its two-volume report on Industrial Electronic Operator Interface Solutions. Volume 1 covers the monitor and operator interface terminal hardware products. Volume 2 covers the software products. During these unprecedented economic times, it is vital to make the right investments in the areas with the best return. The Industrial Operator Interface solutions market (OPI) is an area that continues to evolve and shows great promise. For a supplier competing in this market or investigating market entry, it is critical to understand that the current generations of OPI solutions are being viewed as strategic enabling technologies. They are being integrated into more enterprise IT platforms, subject to more complex security regimes, and require the support of multiple vendors. In short, no longer are they seen ‘simply' as digital control panels. Successful vendors will realize, internalize and apply these ideas to their offerings, business models, channel networks, technical support capabilities and demand creation activities.

• Web Browser - This is expected to be the fastest-growing product market segment of those studied through 2013. These terminals provide flexibility through networking and remote monitoring in factories and offices, making these useful for factory/office integration as well as maintenance applications.
• Portable - Shipments of portable operator interface terminals are expected to have the second fastest growth rate over the forecast period of all the product categories studied. Declining prices of small, bright LCD screens and the increasing adoption of wireless communication networks are contributing to this growth.
• PC-Based - This is the second largest product market under study. Relatively strong growth is expected in this segment despite some overlap in capability with less expensive graphic terminals.
• Graphic - This is the largest product market under study, and is expected to have the largest dollar volume growth over the forecast period through 2013.
• Alphanumeric - Shipments of alphanumeric operator interface terminals to markets in North America are expected for decline over the forecast period as these are displaced by more versatile graphic, PC-based, Web browser, and portable terminals. Alphanumeric terminals will continue to be sold for niche applications not requiring the additional features or capabilities these provide.
