Title

Prism Runtime Framework

Description

Prism is a GUI suite of development tools optimized for embedded devices and developers who are designing with Atmel cpu's. As a complete GUI software development solution for resource-constrained devices, Prism delivers the eye-catching graphical capabilities and time-to-market edge needed for medical, industrial, office automation and consumer markets where user interfaces play an essential role in device designs using Atmel cpu's.

Incorporating all the leading-edge GUI development tools and libraries needed to make user interface visions a reality, Prism is comprised of the Prism Runtime Framework™, a full-featured GUI toolkit, Prism Micro™, a GUI toolkit for monochrome to 8-bit color-depth targets, and Prism Insight, a desktop GUI design and resource editing tool. The complete framework and toolset automates the design and deployment of advanced graphical interfaces for embedded systems, incorporating a high-performance graphical drawing library and a GUI widget set.

Prism Runtime Framework’s complete widget set, drawing engine, event manager and screen manager deliver the functionality needed for interactive devices. With these tools, developers can design sophisticated embedded user interfaces with rich animations, screens transitions, alpha blending, anti-aliasing, and canvas transformations. Prism Micro, a variation of Prism Runtime Framework, is tailored to meet the special requirements of cost-constrained, lower color depth targets. Requiring exceptionally low overhead, Prism Micro is very small and easily ported to virtually any hardware configuration capable of supporting graphical output. Both Prism and Prism Micro can be easily ported to any Atmel cpu that supports graphical output or a Atmel cpu with an external LCD controller.

The development platform Prism Insight enables you to completely design your user interface in a drag-and-drop WYSIWYG environment. Incorporating TrueType font technology, the Insight Resource Editor defines buttons, menus, and other widgets so developers can customize screen layout as required. With the Animation Designer, developers can specify screen flows and select from a wide range of built-in or customize screen transition effects and animations. Prism Insight offers a large range of data output formats such as C++ source code, XML screen description files, and binary resource files, enabling developers to tailor output to the requirements and capabilities of target systems.
