Industrial dashboards and monitoring systems are often built with limited guidance on how to support the cognitive needs of the people who rely on them for operational awareness and decision-making.

Clear Picture SA fills that gap by documenting and testing design strategies that strengthen human awareness in industrial contexts.

The framework serves both software vendors and industrial organizations who seek to improve visualization quality, differentiate solutions, and empower teams to act with clarity and confidence.

Why This Framework

Most industrial dashboard systems weren’t designed to produce visual clarity. They were designed to produce working software.

Vendors build powerful platforms. Integrators deliver solutions. But the system, as it stands, does not reliably produce interfaces that support operator awareness, safety, and confident decision-making — unless deliberately guided to do so.

Clear Picture SA exists to realign that outcome.

We do this by translating research-backed, human-centered design principles into:

• SA Concepts — tested across platforms to reveal what each tool makes possible.
• SA Design Patterns — higher-level strategies that show how multiple concepts can combine in practice.

Together, these provide a shared reference for building well-designed visualizations that go beyond functionality — toward clarity, focus, and real operational awareness.
