Which components to use for a live control station of a factory plant

Dash Python
1

Hey there,

i want to write a dash app that shows the live state of a factory. And i did not find the right components yet to do so. I need something like an interactive image. Machines are basically imagined as stationary objects and machined products move through the “assembly line” (its not really a line but imagine it like one). Objects should be clickable for retrieving certain information towards the clicked object. The stationary objects could also be a fixed png image where i draw ontop of it. The detail of the visualization can be very simple. Right now my approach is just drawing rectangles in a go.scatter plot. But somehow it doesnt feel right.

It could be the topic belongs better to the plotly category, please move if its the case.

Thanks in advance

I build software for large b2b sites with dash. I really like the ‘dash-leaflet’ ive built some custom drawing tools like ant path and a few other tools specific for showing conveyors on a map.

Outside of that i built out dash gauge for monitoring dashboards:

And i use dash-excalidraw for free form drawings / notes on the site or equipment.

Dash dock is useful for creating interactive dashboards that snap into place. A really useful layout tool:

But overall if you dont find what you are looking for just create it with the help of dash-component-boilerplate you can turn any javascript or react package into a dash component
