Applying modern UI technology to safety-critical systems
The User Interface (UI) can make all the difference between a product that works and a product that doesn't, and the results of not working can be disastrous. More robust, better tested, and more uniform interfaces are needed. One way to help achieve UI reliability is to eliminate the error-prone process of translating UIs designed with high-level tools into conventional graphics technology. Rather than use two or more technologies to design, ...

GPU engine enhances ultrasound-detected brain motion calculations
In a recent study, researchers at Seattle-based Spencer Technologies needed a high-performance processing engine to calculate Doppler shift signals generated from ultrasound reflections and used to examine tissue pulsations in the brain. By implementing Jacket software to offload MATLAB computations that would normally occur on the CPU to a more powerful Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), the research team observed brain displacement across a 7 c...

Simplified HMI development
This decade has seen dramatic improvements in display technology, generating an explosion of uses for graphics displays in desktop, workstation, and embedded systems. From in-car navigation systems, mobile phones, and portable MP3 players to airports and power plants, flat-panel displays are showing up everywhere. Consequently, the HMI has emerged as a critical product differentiator that provides a window into an array of powerful product fea...

White Paper: Delivering Rich and Customizable User Interfaces for Multimedia-enabled products
In today’s increasingly competitive consumer device markets, multimedia-enabled products must offer a user interface (UI) that is both visually compelling and easy to use. But changing an embedded UI can often require a lot of time and work. By taking a new approach to the UI problem as a whole, software developers can seriously reduce the amount of effort involved in making changes to device’s interface throughout the product deve...

White Paper: Effective Embedded Differentiation with Graphical User Interfaces
In today’s competitive embedded markets, manufacturers need to find ways to differentiate without adversely impacting development time and cost. This is particularly true in relation to embedded devices that are designed for use by consumers. As such products become more sophisticated, user interaction via traditional switches, dials, and basic displays becomes less desirable for a number of reasons. An alternative is to capitalize on r...
