Hello Karel,
this project was build for presentation to remote users in a small multiplayer colab setup + pixelstreaming.
It also showed how well the connection to Solidworks with Datasmith already works.
I did all the animations with Blueprints, so a connection to a PLC would be possible. The machine is already in production and unfortunately I don’t have access to the PLC program.
But to answer the question from your other post, a visualization inside the HMI touch panel would be a very good use case.
For the Connection you can use OPC UA or Mqtt.
Hopefully someone realease a stable&saftey OPC Plugin in the Future
