In our GUI Integration article it was implied that the leading software vendors would be from the Java or Flash camps. Let me set the record straight here:
There are a number of embedded software vendors that know the business of delivering highly practical GUI based data and animation interfaces to any device and any platform. Tilcon is one whose displays have a strong intrumentation background; but also feature data GUI objects such as text fields, combo boxes, trees, tabs, etc. And the code is not from Java or JavaScript but is C. So although we give the lead in GUI Integration to Flash/Adobe Apollo and Java interfaces – this is no shoe in. There will be a range of skills and capabilities which will determine the eventual winning tools – note the plural.
