Welcome to the first edition of KDAB News, the news update for professionals working with Qt, C++ and 3D technologies like OpenGL, Vulkan etc.
Like many top-class engineering companies, unu didn’t have in-house expertise for building a modern UI, so they decided to partner with KDAB to build a modern UI based on Qt for their innovative electric scooter. In this video you learn more about the development process in this project, some technical info and why unu chose KDAB as a partner.
This video offers an example of rich 3d visualization KDAB helped create for QI Tissue to make sense of hugely complex and vast datasets now available to researchers in the search for a cure for cancer.
For SIGGRAPH 2018, KDAB worked 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. We used QtQuick and the Qt 3D QML API to declare the UI and instantiate the 3D scene and Python for the backend logic, data processing and models as well as definition of the custom Qt 3D meshes elements we needed to use in the UI.
German company OPW produces ultra high-quality measuring instruments and devices designed to help manufacturers ‘get it right first time.’ KDAB redeveloped the software using QML for the UI to enable OPW's in-house technician to set up the control panel, thus improving quality management and long-term cost-savings.
With the introduction of the Qt Quick software renderer it became possible to use Qt Quick on devices without a GPU. We investigated how viable this option is on a lower end device, particularly the NXP i.MX6 ULL, with positive results as this demo explains.
Hotspot is a KDAB R&D project to create a standalone GUI for performance data. It is a replacement for perf report. Hotspot’s GUI takes a perf.data file, parses and evaluates its contents and then displays the result in a graphical way.
Qt World Summit 2017 in Berlin attracted over 1000 attendees, demonstrating Qt Community growth across medical, automotive, gaming, and industrial applications on desktop, mobile, and embedded platforms. KDAB hosted a pre-conference training day for 500+ participants with 11 sessions, including an Advanced QML class for 115 students. As Diamond Sponsor, KDAB showcased stunning demos at their largest booth.
When Competence Center ISOBUS (CCI) needed to modernize their agricultural terminal as part of their innovation strategy, they partnered with KDAB. The cab interface displays multiple applications controlling complex agricultural tools and reports while remaining easy to operate. KDAB developed new terminal software using QtQuick on Linux embedded for this critical agricultural technology.
Why does a tipper truck need an app? F.X. 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 when on the road. KDAB shows us how technical excellence and stunning user experience go hand in hand.
