Highlights of Sparklet's Features

Simplify UI development with pre-built widgets, animations, multi-language support, and more. Sparklet, with its intuitive functionalities, streamlines the process of improving and deploying advanced UI applications. It ensures the development of standout interfaces that resonate with customers.

Intuitive GUI designer

A WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) based GUI designer helps create UI designs, build and run with Sparklet library. The entire process can be done with flick of mouse in Flint UI Designer IDE.

GUI Widgets Library

Sparklet + Flint UI Designer IDE comes with preloaded GUI widgets that are crafted by Embien’s GUI designers. All the widgets come with ready-to-use by users with just configuring them.

Interactive Elements

Widgets like Slider, swipe buttons, carousels and animated image formats using JPEG/PNG formats help provide a mobile like experience to the users.

Multi-language Support

With support for Unicode fonts, right-to-left encoding, translation tables, Sparklet enable internationalization with end-products being offered in any language of choice using system/custom fonts.

Rich Animations

Sparklet support wide range of animations and transition effects to provide users an informative and eye-catchy interactions including alpha blending, sliding in/out, pop in/out, zoom in/out etc.

Codeless Development

Sparklet UI application logic can be developed without writting a single line of code leveraging the UML inspired HSM design methodology and Flint based data variable definitions.

Ease of Use and Customization

Sparklet is very easy to integrate in your existing applications and customize based on product specific needs. Another unique advantage with Sparklet is that once you develop it for one architecture, the same can be run on another without any change, except the underlying Sparklet run time library. This is made possible due to the following features.

Extra Image

Scalable Architecture

The core design is scalability to configure from low footprint to large scale applications and from bare-metal Microcontroller based targets to multi-core processors with OS.

Customizable UI widgets

Most of the designs for wide range of market applications can be achieved with the inbuilt GUI widgets. If needed, custom widgets can be created quickly and deployed.

Simple Integration APIs

Sparklet embedded GUI toolkit along with Flint is designed for a Low code development approach. With a small set of 'C' APIs, the business logic can interact with the library.

Sparklet - Hardware Specific Features

GPU Accelerated Rendering

Sparklet utilizes the full capacity of the graphical engine present in the target architecture. Whether it is a full fledged GPU or simple Blitting engine, it is optimized for best device performance.

Sprite Engines/Hardware Compositors

Sparklet optimizes graphical rendering by making use of underlying Sprite Engines or Hardware Compositors. This allows for efficient handling and composition of graphical elements, contributing to improved performance and visual quality.

CLUT/RLE/Swizzle Support

Sparklet supports Color Look-Up Table (CLUT) combined with Run-Length Encoding (RLE) and Swizzle techniques. This aids in optimizing image storage and processing, reducing memory requirements and enhancing overall efficiency.

3D Engine and OpenGL Support

Sparklet includes a 3D Transformation Engine and supports OpenGL, enabling the creation and rendering of three-dimensional graphics. This is particularly beneficial for applications that require advanced and realistic visual representations.

Custom Widget Rendering

Sparklet allows users to create and implement custom widgets tailored to their specific project requirements. This customization ensures that the graphical user interface aligns precisely with the intended design and functionality.

Fine Control of Memory Placement

Sparklet provides granular control over the memory placement of assets, widgets and hardware layers. This means that developers can strategically manage the memory utilization for each components, optimizing bus bandwidth and streamlining system resource utilization.
