Visualization for the Internet of Things
With GIPSY®, you can monitor your application over the Internet using stationary devices (PCs, workstations, etc.) or mobile devices like tablets (for example iPad) and smartphones. GIPSY® supports a large number of current browsers and uses HTTP/HTTPS.
Open Interfaces and Extendability
GIPSY® uses a component-oriented approach which accelerates the application development and shortens the time-to-market cycle. It offers a large number of open interfaces to your operating system with a broad set of efficient functions. The openness of these interfaces allows you both, to expand GIPSY® and to integrate it into existing environments, with already defined APIs. Whenever you want to expand your application, you can do this at runtime. GIPSY® offers interfaces for a large number of Tcl/TK-extensions like real-time databases, OPC, fieldbuses, RDBMS, Ajax/JSON, JavaScript, GUI, workflow-management-systems, statistics or GIS-Systems.
Easy development
GIPSY® provides all you need for the development of high-performance control systems:
- Unlimited number of graphical objects in an application
- Point-and-click connection of data sources and animated graphical objects
- Creation of company and project specific object libraries including all information about graphic and dynamic behavior
- Automated creation of dynamic views at runtime
- Supports ActiveX, DDE, ODBC, OPC (platform specific)
- Virtually unlimited scalability
Easy Data Access
GIPSY® can connect dynamic graphical objects to any number of processes and data sources (e.g. PLCs and databases), without the need to write specific code. Instead, the use of asynchronous messages, ODBC, OPC and the like within the editor connect data to the graphical objects. GIPSY® also provides easy data integration for standard and custom protocols.
Cross Platform
GIPSY® handles all details of high-quality visualization applications. No matter if you operate with a browser, Windows, Linux, iOS, Android, Solaris, HP-UX – once the application has been customized to your needs, it operates on all supported platforms without any added modifications.
Develop once, deploy anywhere – that’s the guiding principle which has made GIPSY® the most outstanding tool of its kind.
Client Server Technology
GIPSY® provides a flexible client/server technology. Applications may be distributed over WAN/LAN networks, using the TCP/IP standard. It is possible to connect from any workstation or PC to any GIPSY® server on the network in a secure and well defined manner.
Using a GIPSY® application server, applications and views can be centrally managed and updated while the system is up-and-running. Additionally, GIPSY® applications can be accessed and utilized using workstations, PCs, tablets and smartphones without any extra effort.
