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 […]

"I have also done some last minute performance improvements with the help of KDAB Hotspot/perf, and I must say that the days of profiling with weird/huge perf command line options are gone, awesome tool!" Hotspot is a KDAB R&D project to create a standalone GUI for performance data. It is a replacement for perf report. […]

The City Lights demo is an example of Qt 3D being put to novel use to implement a deferred rendering pipeline. With OpenGL, the number of lights you can show on a screen, also affecting objects in a scene, is limited by the need to use a forward renderer. Using Qt 3D, the geometry considerations […]

Through their partnership, Qi and KDAB have developed imaging software to help researchers gain a deeper understanding of the progression of cancer on a cellular level, using Qt. Qi, KDAB and Qt have now taken their collaboration one step further by introducing nanoQuill, otherwise known as “The Coloring Book of Life,” which is a crowdsourced […]

This year Qt World Summit was held once more at the Berlin Congress Centre, in central Berlin and had over 1000 attendees – clear testimony to the growth of the Qt Community, as Qt enables our interfaces with the world in multiple areas, from medical to automotive, from gaming to industrial machinery, on desktop, mobile […]

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. […]

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 […]

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 […]

Demonstrates the use of Qt 3D using the QML API to create a high quality, animated 3D visualisation application. The demo shows Qt 3D’s ability to use custom shaders that implement a metal-roughness physics based rendering (PBR) pipeline. The PBR shaders coupled with specially crafted material textures and environment maps gives a very realistic simulation […]

In this projection demo a laptop takes care of communicating with the Android smartphone on one hand, and of displaying a QtQuick application which puts together all the information for projecting on the other hand. The information being displayed includes missed phone calls, emails, calendar, time, weather, etc. This information is retrieved on the Android […]

mPro (formerly Migari) is a comprehensive software system for the management, monitoring and automation of precision measurement systems in the context of quality control. It can integrate a wide variety of measurement hardware and buses and is programmable and extensible by the integrator and end user. This is necessary as such systems are generally custom […]

QNX CAR is a framework for building In-Vehicle Infotainment systems, including: the QNX OS a powerful mobile connectivity framework a best-in-class acoustic, noise reduction, and hands-free solution an HMI framework supporting HTML5, Qt, and other native UI toolsets. Using Qt5 on QNX, we created a mock-up of a modern interface for a sailing boat, to […]

Trading communication market leader IPC created revolutionary dealer boards by using the Qt software library Stock exchanges are some of the most stressful working environments where shares worth millions of Euros/Dollars are traded within milliseconds. Naturally, brokers and stock traders rely on state-of-the-art communications and trading systems to ensure constant availability and reliability of information […]

Touchscreens and modern user interfaces are migrating into every type of medical machine: ultrasound, infusion, CAT, MRI, x-ray, care monitors, surgery displays, information tablets, and even patient self-service systems. Touchscreens are also helping with hygiene requirements as they are liquid-proof and easily disinfected because the display is in a sealed enclosure. Qt is an ideal […]
