Altia, an international leader in graphical user interface design and development solutions, announces that it has joined the STMicroelectronics Partner Program to make its suite of graphical user interface (GUI) development software available to companies designing and deploying embedded displays for their products.

The Altia tool chain—which includes a GUI editor and graphics code generator—offers an integrated, efficient and easy-to-use workflow that includes advanced 3D capabilities, global language support. Designers import assets from all popular 2D and 3D graphics tools into Altia Design, our GUI editor. In Altia Design, developers can create sophisticated animations and more to create a working GUI model. Once tested and finalized, Altia DeepScreen leverages that same GUI model to generate production-ready C code. Each DeepScreen code generation target is architected to take advantage of the unique features of the selected STMicroelectronics hardware, offering optimized performance and lowest possible footprint.

For teams just getting started with GUI development or needing to supplement their GUI development team, Altia offers Professional Engineering Services to serve end-to-end GUI development lifecycle support—from graphics development and user experience research through to testing, functional safety certification and production.

“As an ST Authorized Partner, Altia makes it even easier for customers to leverage the proven performance of Altia’s GUI development solutions paired with ST’s market-leading hardware—from microcontrollers to processors,” said Jason Williamson, Altia Vice President of Marketing. “We look forward to working together to help companies get embedded displays to market quickly and efficiently with our production-proven combination of technologies.”

“The ST Partner Program is a high-value offering that has exceeded the expectations of our Customers and Partners helping customers’ design teams access strong supplemental skills, tools, and resources that meet design time-to-market challenges across the full ecosystem of products and services while easily integrating ST devices in their projects,” said Alessandro Maloberti, Partner Ecosystem Director, STMicroelectronics. “By selecting, qualifying, and certifying ST Authorized Partners, customers know that the partners they engage have the expertise to accelerate their design and development activities and ensure they ship the most robust and efficient products and services to market.”
