Variscite Teams with Crank to Offer Embedded Device with Custom, User-Friendly, Engaging GUI

Tuesday, 20 Feb 2024

Variscite is pleased to announce a new partnership with Crank AMETEK, an innovator of high-end embedded graphical user interface (GUI) solutions, to help customers accelerate time-to-market and streamline the design and development of embedded products that require high-end, high-functionality GUI.

 

Whether it’s for medical devices, EV charging stations, surveillance dashboards, retail kiosks, or industrial devices, a visually engaging and user-friendly interface can substantially differentiate a product in a crowded market. Developers using Variscite’s System on Module (SoM) solutions now have a significant advantage in bringing products with high-end UI performance to market—faster and at reduced costs.

Variscite and Crank AMETEK are combining forces to offer embedded devices with comprehensive set of GUI tools and frameworks. This allows seamless, timely collaboration between designers and developers, and an efficient workflow in which teams can work concurrently on the GUI and underlying logic.

 

The result is better devices that are more intuitive for the user, more visually appealing, more responsive, and more fully featured. Additionally, companies can iterate more quickly, respond to market needs faster, and launch products ahead of the competition.

 

“In the dynamic landscape of the past three years, we have seen the needs of industries, such as healthcare, evolve beyond product reliability and security to include an increased necessity for diverse connections that facilitate seamless input and output experiences,” said Martin Jomphe, Director General of Crank AMETEK. “I am confident that this partnership with Variscite will be instrumental in shaping the future of connected experiences, offering a robust foundation for development teams to bring forth cutting-edge products that stand at the forefront of market evolution through exceptional customer experiences.”

 

“The partnership with Crank AMETEK aligns perfectly with Variscite’s mission to not only expedite product development times but also to ensure our customers have the support they need for quicker market entry,” said Ofer Austerlitz, VP Business Development and Sales of Variscite. “This synergy offers customers a competitive edge, ensuring they can launch products faster and more efficiently.”
