Qt for MCUs
Ultimate Performance. Tiny Footprint.
Qt for MCUs is a complete graphics framework and toolkit with everything you need to design, develop, and deploy GUIs on MCUs. You can run your application on bare metal or a real-time operating system like FreeRTOS. If you are familiar with Qt you can now have one technology approach for your entire product line. Maureen Sundman from The Qt Company provides a brief and concise introduction to Qt for MCUs 1.2 and 1.3 and an overview of the roadmap in coming months. She explains what's in the box and the benefits of designing and developing HMIs for microcontrollers with Qt for MCUs and Qt Design Studio.
Qt for MCUs uses a new graphic runtime, Qt Quick Ultralite, that delivers high performance with low memory consumption, which is achieved by a new translation of QML to C++.
