HUD & UI Elements earns its spot for combining a library of 30+ ready-made UI elements with a parameter-based, keyframe-less animation approach. The MIT license and a compatibility range from Blender 2.93 to 5.0+ add to the appeal, and Efeitos Pro backs it with a gallery, documentation, and video tutorials.
HUD & UI Elements is a Blender add-on from Efeitos Pro for creating futuristic interfaces. It targets FUI screens, high-tech dashboards, and sci-fi displays, and suits work such as broadcast design, sci-fi movies, and creative data displays.
The add-on ships with 30+ customizable UI elements. You can start from basic shapes like triangles, rectangles, hexagons, and n-gons, add radial and matrix components, and layer in mathematical animations built from sine waves, Perlin noise lines, and Plexus animations. Elements can be combined and customized, and full or partial settings copied between them.
Animation runs on a parameter-based, keyframe-less system, so you adjust values rather than set keyframes manually. Tools for handling large scenes and playing back restricted elements are included. It runs on Windows x64, Linux x64, and macOS arm64 (M1 and newer), with compatibility listed for Blender 2.93 through 5.0 and later. The add-on is distributed under the MIT license.
Hud & Ui Elements is best for blender artists creating FUI screens, high-tech dashboards, and sci-fi displays, plus work such as broadcast design, sci-fi movies, and creative data displays.
Hud & Ui Elements is completely free to download and use.
HUD & UI Elements lists compatibility with Blender 2.93 up to 5.0 and later, covering a wide span of releases from older builds to current versions. That broad range means you can run it whether you are on a long-term stable install or the newest release. Before installing, open your preferred Blender version, then head to Edit > Preferences to add and activate the add-on. If you work across multiple Blender installs, the same support range applies to each.
HUD & UI Elements supports Windows x64, Linux x64, and macOS on arm64 (M1 and newer). On Apple hardware, that means the add-on targets Apple Silicon machines rather than older Intel Macs. Across all three platforms the installation path is the same: open Blender, go to Edit > Preferences, and install the add-on from the Add-ons section. If you split work between a Windows workstation and a Mac, the add-on covers both as long as the Mac runs Apple Silicon.
HUD & UI Elements installs through Blender's standard add-on flow. Open your preferred Blender version, go to Edit > Preferences, and in the Add-ons section click Install. Navigate to and select the latest version of the add-on file, then click Install Add-on. After installation, make sure the add-on is activated by checking its box if it is not enabled by default. To use it, open the 3D Viewport and click Add > HUD & UI Elements, then pick an element from the menu.
HUD & UI Elements exposes its settings through Blender's Object Properties. Select the element you want to edit, then in the Outliner open Object Properties and expand the HUD & UI dropdown menu. From there you can adjust the parameters to change the element's appearance. The add-on uses a parameter-based, keyframe-less animation system, so you can animate through those parameters rather than setting keyframes manually. It also lets you copy full or partial settings between elements, which helps when managing large scenes.
HUD & UI Elements is listed here as free, and it is distributed under the MIT license. MIT is a permissive open-source license, which generally allows broad use, modification, and distribution. Licensing terms can change over time, so check the developer's page for the current details before you rely on any specific terms. Efeitos Pro also provides a gallery, documentation, and video tutorials on the developer's page, which are useful references while you learn the add-on's elements and parameters.
