Auto-generation of simulation devices for a hardware-in-the-loop simulation

A system, comprising:

• a controller;
• and
• a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation platform configured to:
• analyze a first graphical representation of a device of an operator console;
• determine, based on analyzing the first graphical representation of the device, device type information and signal information of the device,
• wherein the device type information identifies a device type of the device, and wherein the signal information identifies one or more types of signals associated with the device;
• generate, based on the device type information, a second graphical representation of the device for an HIL simulation of an operation of the device;
• generate, based on the signal information, an output signal from the second graphical representation of the device,
• wherein the output signal is generated as part of the HIL simulation;
• and
• provide the output signal to the controller as part of the HIL simulation.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:
• determine device type information and signal information of a device of an operator console based on a two-dimensional representation of a device of an operator console,
• wherein the device type information identifies a device type of the device, and wherein the signal information identifies signal types of signals associated with the device;
• generate, based on the device type information, a three-dimensional representation of the device for an HIL simulation of an operation of the device;
• generate, based on the signal information, an output signal from the three-dimensional representation of the device,
• wherein the output signal is generated as part of the HIL simulation;
• and
• provide the output signal to a controller device as part of the HIL simulation.
