The Future of Embedded Software An industry-wide view of some of the challenges
Download the report As the world continues its steady march towards ubiquitous computing, almost everything from airplanes to toasters is being powered by embedded software. In fact, technology is so pervasive, we take connected homes, advanced medical equipment, and self-driving cars almost for granted. However, many of us who work in the industry have some […]
The Future of Embedded Software Are we ready?
There are many big challenges that face software development today, such as developing for cybersecurity, creating a code of professional ethics, and maintaining data privacy. In this downloadable magazine, we hear from pundits with honest insights into these deep questions about the direction the industry is heading.
Modernizing SCADA HMIs How SCADA tools can take advantage of Qt
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems have been around since the 1950s, far longer than most other types of computer applications. Their rock-solid performance has been responsible for the streamlining of any industry that needs precise and consistent controls: building automation, energy management, part machining, printing and packaging, robotic assembly, ship building, water treatment, […]
Making the Most of your Memory with mmap
Today’s complex applications can soak up megabytes, a memory management strategy is crucial for RAM intensive applications like image/video processing, massive databases, and machine learning.
Python – Tron Demo Using Qt Quick and the Qt 3D QML API
For SIGGRAPH, KDAB has been working on a new Qt 3D based demo. We decided that instead of using C++, it would be interesting to try out PySide2 and harness Python to drive the application. The idea behind this demo is to do with data acquisition of a vehicle’s surrounding environment. Once the data is […]
Qi (Quantitive Imaging Systems) case study Solving Cancer with Qt 3D
Solving cancer is probably the biggest mystery that we see unravel in our life. This is a complex one because cancer is not a single disease, there are a myriad of aspects that need to be uncovered. Qi (Quantitive Imaging Systems) images biopsies from patients and then labels individual cells with over a hundred biomarkers. […]
Competence Center (CCI) case study Putting intelligence into agriculture using Qt
When Competence Center ISOBUS (CCI) decided to bring their terminal up-to-date as part of the Group’s strategy to remain top of the field in advanced agritechnical innovation, they asked KDAB to help. The user interface in the operator’s cab displays multiple applications. It can control complex agricultural tools, receive and display complex reports and much […]
Lots of lights: Generating cities Data visualization with Qt 3D, OpenGL and C++
Sometimes data visualization might call for more than a graph – you need to visualize complex data, such as that generated by city lighting, in three dimensions to get the full effect. KDAB decided to put together a showcase for the Qt World Summit that allowed us to demonstrate Qt 3D’s capabilities as a performant […]
KDAB and Meiller – Tipper Truck App
Design, Technical Excellence and Superb User Experience Why does a tipper truck need an app? Meiller is the leading manufacturer of tippers in Europe. KDAB software developers and UI/UX designers worked with Meiller to create a mobile app that interacts with embedded hardware on the truck, allowing drivers to diagnose and fix problems – even […]
