In this chapter, an HMI GUI was built using an HTML script to create a web page. The fundamentals of how a web page server works in the physical world using the Breakout.js software was discussed as well. The file structure for Breakout.js was explained using the installation directory given in this chapter as an example. Physical computing concepts were also discussed along with the examples of electromechanical and electronic components used in the construction of this interactive computation device. Finally, the HTML code for building and executing an HMI DC motor controller was given in this chapter along with the examples of how to change the Arduino for new motor and pushbutton switch digital pin assignments.

In Chapter 5, IR (Infrared) Remote Control Tester, a discussion on how to build an electronic testing device to check the operation of an IR remote control will be presented. Learning objectives in the chapter include IR detector operation, how to interface an IR detection...
