Flashback Friday! RSView32 Star Trek Menu’s Demo

Welcome to The Automation Blog’s “Flashback Friday!”

Today I’m highlighting an RSView32 project I wrote to make RSView32 look like the Star Trek LCARS computer system.

In 2001 an engineer told me the story about how one of his clients wanted him to create a SCADA project with menu’s that looked like the computer system out of Star Trek The Next Generation.

Intrigued with the idea, I attempted the project myself and this demo is the result.

To read the original story and download the project, see the reposted article HERE on The Automation Blog:
