Human – Machine Interactive systems (HMI), requires general knowledge on industry design and using design software tools (like AutoCAD, Pro/E, SolidWorks, Rhino, etc.), or human working environment design - ergonomics. Aiming at design interactive industrial products in people’s everyday and work lives.
