Unattended Machines · Custom IoT HMI

Bringing screens to your product — from screen design to payment integration

A showcase of a character capsule (gacha) vending machine UX designed and implemented from scratch. It features a dynamic layout that alternates between full-screen ads and payment guidance, plus a payment and dispensing state machine.

// 01 — OVERVIEW
Overview

How this HMI works

It implements a dynamic split layout that switches between a full-screen ad on the left and price and card-payment guidance on the right, providing card (NFC · IC) and QR payment flows, an approve→dispense→complete state machine, and a hidden admin menu. The payment terminal, dispensing motor, and sensors are based on a serial-integration design.

Integration & communication

How it connects to your equipment

  • RS-485 / RS-232 · Modbus
  • Payment terminal (VAN) serial-integration design
  • Dispensing motor & sensor integration
  • Wi-Fi · Ethernet

Every EGNOX Custom HMI commonly supports Wi-Fi and Ethernet networking, OTA wireless firmware updates (signature verification and rollback), remote screen viewing via a web browser, and multilingual operation (Korean / English). The communication register map is mapped during the screen-design phase to match the equipment model.
