Oh hey I run this, originally I was just collecting the fui designs for reference when trying to make my own as a desktop (https://github.com/seenaburns/dex-ui), but since then I've kept it going.

My personal favorite is probably still Oblivion http://www.gmunk.com/OBLIVION-GFX but if these are too over the top science fiction, The Bourne Identity's is pretty fun too http://coleran.com/gallery-category/fui/#the-bourne-identity

This is an incredible and timely resource for me. I'm currently building a spaceship cockpit for my young sons. I'm a former EE, so I've got the blinky LEDs, switches, LCDs, keypads, and other physical UI components covered, but I'd love to add a sophisticated GUI component. Unfortunately, I'm not much of a coder. Do you know if any sci-fi GUIs are available as Android apps for tablets? I have 3 Kindle Fire tablets that I would love to turn into dedicated GUI touchscreens for the cockpit.

I set up SquareHome 2 with Minimalistic Text widgets to be kind of a retro-futuristic control panel for my phone. I'll bet with some time and the right icon packs it would make a pretty nice cockpit HUD.

You and your kids might enjoy piloting the ship using Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator (http://artemis.eochu.com/)

Thanks for the tip! I just installed Artemis on 3 tablets and it's fantastic for my purposes. And looking at the Artemis forums, there are a number of people building Star Trek-like bridge consoles, similar to what I'm doing. Except I'm aiming for more of a gritty Alien type of aesthetic.
