GUI Technology for Consumer Electronics Devices
Our SpectraWorks™ solution is a platform-independent, suite of tools for
embedded systems that allow you to create highly engaging graphical user
interfaces. GUI design and deployment occur in a single phase. You’re able to
reduce or eliminate steps in the design, development and testing cycles to
bring your product to market faster. Employ SpectraWorks to enhance the
look-and-feel of applications in virtually any device with a display, from
digital cameras and printer control panels to BluRay® players and consumer
appliances.
Design once with SpectraWorks
SpectraWorks enables close collaboration between user interface designers and
software engineers – an uncommon scenario when using alternative solutions. By
sharing the same digital design files, designers and developers can more easily
reduce development time and more quickly bring high-quality GUI products to
market.
SpectraWorks offers hardware cross-platform portability and works with Linux®,
Windows® Embedded CE, WindRiver VxWorks®, pSos™ and iTron® systems, in addition
to configurations without an operating system.
Three key elements comprise the SpectraWorks solution:
 SpectraBuilder
Our SpectraBuilder™ professional GUI design tool allows designers to create
platform-independent UIs without writing code. By separating design elements
and the software, SpectraBuilder simplifies the process of carrying brands
across a line of products.
 SpectraCore
The SpectraCore™ GUI engine includes a versatile library of widget building
blocks that jumpstart development. With innovative “skin” technology,
SpectraCore uses a small asset size to build high performance and
easy-maintenance characteristics into most GUIs. SpectraCore is extremely
portable and ideal for devices with very light CPU, RAM, ROM and system
requirements.
 SpectraApps
SpectraApps™ software brings out the personalities, features and functions of
any SpectraWorks-enabled device. Most SpectraApps are written by the device
designers. We also supply a variety of feature-rich multimedia reference
applications, such as our Digital Photo Manager application.
