QVariant, QObject: Qt's not just for GUI development

In part II of our Qt for Beginners Summer Webinar Series we will explore how Qt is so much more than just a GUI toolkit. Through two classes, QObject and QVariant, Qt brings us introspection, makes it easier to manage memory in C++ and makes it easier to decouple classes. 

So I Downloaded Qt, Now What?

ICS is excited to bring you our summer webinar series that will introduce you to the Qt framework. In part I we will cover the steps of getting you started with your first Qt application. We will explore how to start a project, how to build, where to find answers when you need them, what license issues you need to be aware of, and mostly how to have fun with it.

Maximizing High-Performance Applications with CAN Bus

This brand-new ICS webinar offers an introduction to CAN Bus, and is directed at developers with no previous experience with CAN Bus or related technologies.

An Introduction to the Yocto Embedded Framework

The Yocto Project® is a collaborative Open Source project that provides templates, tools and methods to help create custom Linux-based systems for embedded products, regardless of the hardware architecture. It was founded in 2010 as a collaboration among hardware manufacturers, open-source operating systems vendors, and electronics companies to help standardize embedded Linux development. 

Qt on Raspberry Pi

This webinar introduces the Raspberry Pi, an ultra-low-cost ($5-$35) credit-card sized Linux computer.

Migrating from Photon to Qt

The QNX Photon MicroGUI was a technological feat in its time.  It gained popularity in the mid-1990's when QNX released a 1.44Mb bootable floppy with the QNX Operating System, the Photon GUI, networking, web browser, file browser, and several demo applications.   QNX continued to develop and support Photon through 2014, but as GUI development systems matured — and users' expectations for GUIs increased — Blackberry's QNX is now focusing on the basics of drawing to the screen (e.g. QNX Screen) and left other aspects of Graphical User Interfaces to those who do it best (e.g. Qt)   This presentation would be of particular interest to people looking to upgrade their software from an existing Photon system to Qt.  It discusses the differences and similarities between the Photon and Qt application development platforms and how one may migrate from one to the other.
