Description: This project presents a novel UI prototype for a locomotive testing system that specifically targets the driver's cab. Starting from the cluttered and unstructured LabVIEW application, our goal was to design and develop a new application that was user-friendly and structured. By aligning the structure with the real locomotive, the prototype aims to provide an intuitive user experience. The resulting prototype takes a component-based approach and focuses on design, extensibility and modularization. The design was developed with Figma and implemented using web technologies; more specifically an Electron application combined with React was implemented. A key feature is the customization capability through a configuration file in CSV format, allowing flexible configuration of modules and variants. To simulate the prospective interface connection, a mock-backend was created, as the actual backend implementation is pending. This project provides a solid foundation for further development and demonstrates the possibilities of extending the application with additional views and functionality, ultimately serving as a valuable platform for ongoing work in this area.
