3. Vision: The Future is Built with Qt
Same code base
across all devices
Reduce SW
development time
and maintenance
costs
Platform based
approach to
reduce
development
costs
› Qt abstracts the OS and HW
dependencies so that your
software is truly cross-
platform.
› Qt provides SW
development tools to
shorten the design-
development-deployment
cycle.
› Qt with its suite of modular
libraries and plug-in based
tools can be customized to
create your unique software
platform and ecosystem.
Create Safe,
Effective, Intuitive,
and Reliable User
Experiences
