Altia DeepScreen Code Generator Powers NXP i.MX 95 Applications Processors

Altia, a leading provider of graphical user interface (GUI) design tools, proudly announces its support for scaling Altia DeepScreen to NXP’s latest i.MX 95 application processors. NXP is offering an impressive range of i.MX 95 devices to suit a variety of cost and performance requirements—and Altia’s GUI development software is uniquely suited to support embedded GUI development across the i.MX 95 product line.

The i.MX 95 applications processor family enables a broad range of Altia graphical user interface applications in automotive, auto-adjacent, industrial and more. The i.MX 95 family capabilities include a multi-core application domain with up to six Arm Cortex®-A55 cores, as well as two independent real-time domains for safety/low-power and high-performance real-time use, consisting of high-performance Arm Cortex-M7 and Arm Cortex-M33 CPUs, combining low-power, real-time and high-performance processing. Aligning with Altia’s mission to deliver safety solutions for mission-critical GUIs, the i.MX 95 family is designed to enable ISO 26262 ASIL-B and SIL-2 IEC 61508 compliant platforms.

Altia’s advanced GUI editor and graphics code generator are exceptionally well-suited for GUI projects targeting the i.MX 95 family of application processors. Altia simplifies the transition from artist’s graphics drawn in Sketch, Figma or 3D graphics software packages to deployable graphics code. Companies who use Altia to design and deploy their production embedded GUIs reduce development time and costs compared to competitive solutions. Collaboration is further enhanced by Altia CloudWare™, where users can immediately test drive and begin development of their GUIs for i.MX 95 remotely with Altia’s hardware-and-software-in-the-cloud platform. Altia’s automatic code generation minimizes RAM usage and optimizes performance, making it an essential tool for developers working with embedded GUIs.

Altia’s VP of Engineering, Michael Hill, states, “Altia has a long, successful history of supporting NXP silicon—and our team is proud to offer code generation solutions for the NXP i.MX 95 family of application processors. Our initial findings suggest that this processor combined with Altia-generated graphics code performs at twice the speed of the previous generation. This will be a powerful combination of technologies for all embedded applications.”

Figma Plugin is Now Freely Available for Altia GUI Software Users

Altia announces the release of Altia Exporter for Figma. This new plugin gives designers the power to get their Figma graphics to embedded hardware easily and with the lowest possible memory requirements. Available today on the Figma community, current users of Altia Design 13.4 and above can now use the Altia Exporter at no extra cost.

This new product further extends Altia’s flexibility to leverage artwork from industry-leading tools to include Figma. With Altia Exporter for Figma, designers save time and effort because they can import Figma assets to the Altia toolchain and begin designing their GUI without any need to rebuild, rename or restructure the original components. Leveraging Altia’s powerful features like Stamp Object, developers can easily optimize their Figma designs for embedded hardware—saving precious memory while delivering best performance on chip.

“Companies around the world count on Altia to deliver highly efficient, production-ready code that is true to their artists’ concepts. With the new Altia Exporter for Figma, we continue to empower designers to create in the tools that they want while giving developers the power to select the embedded hardware they want and get the best looking, best performing UI and UX to market,” stated Mike Juran, Altia CEO.

The Altia Exporter for Figma is available today at no cost to Altia GUI software users (version 13.4 and above) on the Figma Community. For more information or to request a demo of this new product, visit altia.com/get-started or email [email protected].
