Embedded GUI Case Studies
Kiosk Information Systems selected Haidar 5.7" monochrome panel with touch screen for their new line of automated bike rental kiosks.
Kiosk information Systems (KIS) is the leader in designing and manufacturing self-
service kiosks. When they contracted by "Bcycle", the first bike sharing system in USA, to develop an automated bike rental kiosks, KIS turned to Haidar Technology for the touch user interface. We work closely with KIS and Display Devices to develop a sun light readable, low power, user friendly and great looking monochrome touch user interface. Our mono touch UI solution powered by GLC-M21 allows KIS and Display Devices to focus on designing the kiosk and off loading the main CPU from the complex graphic programming. Hundreds of panels are already shipped to KIS with no interruption to their tide production schedule.
"We selected the Haidar Technology touchscreen for the user interface in our line of totally automated bike rental kiosks. Denver has installed the initial system, there are many other cities ordering duplicate systems for their communities. The Haidar screen enabled us to do quick development of the user interface, and off loaded that task allowing the main CPU to focus on running the kiosk. The Haidar protocol was simple and easily learned. Abdul was very helpful at all stages of development. Overall, a good experience working with Haidar products."

MC Power Systems contracted Haidar Technology to develop a color user interface for their new plasma power supplies
MC Power Systems, a premier manufacturer of plasma power supplies,
contracted Haidar Technology to develop and prototype a 3.5" TFT color user interface for their new line of mid-frequency plasma power supplies "Iroquois series". We work closely with Dr. Patrick Marcus, VP engineering, to build a prototype board based on Microchip PIC32 microcontroller with an interface to at least two 3.5" QVGA TFT LCDs from two different manufacturers. The user interface is built using the free GUI library from microchip. The prototype board was a great success and entered the production after few modifications.
"When developing high end plasma power supplies it is difficult to find the time and resources to research and develop the user interface. Often the user interface is a project equal in complexity and scope to the underlying power electronics and analog control being designed. Having Haidar Technology as a trusted engineering resource expanded our ability to design a custom user interface far beyond what we would have undertaken on our own. This enabled us to add a touch of class and high end user experience to our products. Haidar Technologies has show a high degree of competence in selection and development of a completely custom color LCD hardware solution ranging from the LCD glass and controller selection, to the microprocessor backend, hardware interface, and board layout at a cost much lower than what we could have done it for in house. I hope to work with their company in future product development."
