QT ACCELERATE IS ABOUT EMPOWERING CREATORS TO TURN IDEAS INTO INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS IN DAYS , NO MATTER THE TIME OR RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS .
foundation is the Qt framework , it inherits the cross-platform scalability , which is super important for us because it means we can reuse our solution down the line for other products if we want . It ’ s also entirely open to further customisation , adaptation and upgrades .”
A paradigm shift
With Qt Accelerate , Clean Motion ’ s team was able to deploy its intended design system and desired HMI functionality in a week by leveraging the design-to-code conversion of Qt Bridges , Bootto-Qt for quick deployment , Qt Insights for analytics and reporting and much more .
Collings said : “ Navigating the wide variety of development platforms , hardware and talent requirements for modern software and devices can be daunting , especially for small / medium companies or enterprises in the early stages of digitalisation . It was a great relief to discover that Qt Group has released Qt Accelerate to help organisations quick-start their industrial HMI development .”
Qt Accelerate was designed to deliver a 99 % -ready solution that just needed customisation in terms of the design system , branding and selected functionality . To help Clean Motion get over the finish line , Qt Group ran a one-week boot camp with the team ’ s designers , engineers and product team that brought its vision to life .
“ Our plan is to rapidly scale the number of industries we cover and provide even more out-of-the-box functionality and reference platforms while condensing bootcamp sessions to one to two days ,” said Petteri Holländer , Senior Vice President , Ventures , Qt Group . “ Qt Accelerate is about empowering creators to turn ideas into innovative products in days , no matter the time or resource constraints . Building any software-defined product from scratch can be an involved process . It takes coding , designing , deciding which software and hardware to use , etc . With Qt Accelerate , you don ’ t have to start from scratch or hire a full engineering team before you have a working product to trial . You get a starting point that ’ s almost done and risk-free because it ’ s qualityassured from the ground up . After just one week of customisation , you are easily looking at a version 1.0 product launch .” �
