The latest release (version 4.18) of STMicroelectronics’ TouchGFX software for user-interface development with STM32 microcontrollers (MCUs) added support for video playback, enhanced tools for multi-developer collaboration and support for new X-NUCLEO display kits.
By allowing playback of Motion-JPEG (MJPEG) video files, TouchGFX brings extra pizzazz to small devices like home automation products, wearables, medical devices and industrial sensors, allowing rich features such as instructional guides or entertaining startup and pause screens to enhance the user interface.
Developers can use their own MJPEG files or choose from the sample movies provided. A new video widget in TouchGFX Designer, with properties including start, stop, repeat and go-to-frame, simplifies prototyping and is added to the application by drag-and-drop. Watch the video at http://www.dataweek.co.za/*nov21-st to see how simple the new widget is to use.
