ICS Webinars

Consumers not only expect an intuitive and beautiful device with unparalleled performance, they also expect a responsive touch with seamless transitioning between screens for a positive customer experience. Product companies must be able to adapt quickly to market requirements to maintain a competitive advantage. 

Qt, the leading independent technology for cross-platform development, is the leading choice for software developers with touchscreen user interface needs. These complimentary ICS Webinars are dedicated to providing you with educational content that will enhance your Qt programming, helping you to future proof your products and applications and connect to what is to come!

Porting Motif Applications to Qt

Since the 1980s, Motif has been a popular toolkit for developing graphical desktop applications. Despite its age, legacy applications written using the Motif toolkit are still in production. There are a number of reasons to migrate these applications to newer platforms. Porting Motif applications to the Qt framework can achieve many of the benefits without requiring a total rewrite.

Automotive Media Management in Future IVI Systems

The challenge for automotive IVI implementations is that most people’s media — their music, videos, audiobooks, podcasts and television — exist in a multitude of forms and originate from many disparate sources. In addition, as the nature of personal transportation is changing and ride-sharing is becoming more common, new requirements for infotainment emerge.

In this webinar, co-hosted with The Qt Company, we outline an architecture for automotive media management that addresses these challenges and we demonstrate a Qt based implementation.

10 Keys to Ensuring Success for Your Next Qt Project

Before starting any software development project, there are some things you should know – before you code. In this webinar, we will explore the use of the right people and the right tools first and then we will cover the top 10 things you need to know before using Qt. Join us and learn the best way to future-proof your sophisticated and modern software projects.

User Experience Design for Software Engineers

This webinar is an introduction to User Experience (UX) design, specifically focusing on issues that software engineers encounter.

QtSerialBus: Using Modbus and CAN bus with Qt

QtSerialBus is a new Qt module, introduced as a technical preview in Qt 5.6.0. It supports two serial interface protocols that are commonly used on embedded systems: CAN bus and Modbus. This webinar will introduce QtSerialBus, starting with background on the CAN bus and Modbus interface protocols, and the currently supported platforms, drivers, and hardware.

Interface of Things Use Cases & Considerations

As the smart home connects with the connected car and other smart devices, brands must build and operate their Internet of Things (IoT) strategy to boost user interaction between multiple devices. In this webinar, ICS, along with Wind River and The Qt Company, will discuss reference frameworks you can use for your upcoming IoT project starting from connected devices to cloud manageability and get started building a smarter world (and brand).

How the Requirements of Connected Car-Smart Home Will Shape the Auto Industry’s Development of Infotainment Systems

As connected cars roll off the assembly line and smart-home technology gains traction among consumers, the question is, how will cars communicate with homes and other digital devices? Dr. Roland Krause, Director of Engineering at ICS, will discuss connected cars, smart homes and the greater world of IoT, and examine standards and protocols that will allow them to converge.

The Making of an Automotive IVI Media Manager

ICS has delivered numerous In-Vehicle-Infotainment (IVI) for automotive industry and In-Flight-Entertainment (IFE) projects. As part of these projects, we have developed an important enabling component of any entertainment system, a media manager that addresses the many challenges inherent when trying to create an intelligent automotive infotainment solution.

Qt for Beginners Webinar Series

ICS is pleased to bring you this introductory 5 part webinar series that will introduce students to the Qt framework. Each webinar, one of our seasoned engineers will give an overview of a specific aspect of the Qt framework. A basic knowledge of the C++ programming language is required, but the webinar will include a short refresher on the required C++ and object-oriented concepts needed to use Qt.

OpenGL Fixed Function to Shaders

Open Graphics Library (OpenGL) is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface (API) for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. The API is typically used to interact with a graphics processing unit (GPU), to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering.
