Mentor Graphics Announces Inflexion Platform User Interface (UI) for Android-Based Device Development

Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced the
Inflexion Platform™ User Interface (UI) for Android, a
comprehensive development toolkit comprising a graphics engine and
UI creation tool that enables Android application developers to
rapidly customize product UIs with visually compelling 2D and 3D
animated elements for increased product differentiation.
The Inflexion Platform UI for Android is ideal for smart phones
and consumer devices where product differentiation is critical, and
for non-smart phone Android and Linux-based devices, such as
televisions, set-top boxes, printers, infotainment systems, and
other products which would otherwise require significant UI
development effort.
Standard approaches applied to the development of the latest UIs
lead to a complicated, time-consuming, and expensive development
process since it requires coding, configuration, and expert
knowledge of OpenGL/ES APIs. The Inflexion Platform UI for Android
provides a rapid design and implementation methodology through a
drag and drop tool and then automatically generates Java
interfaces, integrates code, and creates required files in minutes
versus days.
By separating an application's visual and interactive
characteristics from the underlying functionality, the Inflexion
Platform UI for Android enables the application software
engineering and the UI implementation teams to work independently
on their tasks for increased productivity and optimal GUI effects.
Completely new interface designs can be created without programming
or scripting because the Inflexion Platform UI tool automates key
interactive behaviors necessary for UI performance.
"Funtoro, a member of Micro-Star International (MSI), the maker
of next-generation infotainment systems for public transportation
vehicles, is a user of Mentor's Inflexion Platform UI for Android
for innovative 3D graphics," stated Ted Huang, assistant vice
president, Micro-Star International. "The Inflexion UI has also
helped Funtoro/MSI dramatically minimize engineering time and
resources for rapid UI development to achieve both a more
compelling UI and faster time-to-market benefits."
The Inflexion Platform UI Express enables a multitude of
animations and 3D effects, such as spinning, zooming, reflections,
textures, and per-pixel lighting variations. The UI can be altered
without changing the underlying application logic, enabling design
components to be easily reused across screens or other products. As
a result, Android device designers can retarget their
Inflexion-based Java applications for a variety of products in
minutes, with different UI "skins" for different end-products
without coding.
"Mentor's Inflexion UI for Android quickly morphs the default
Android UI to sophisticated and differentiated UIs for specific
vendors, products, and applications," said Glenn Perry, general
manager, Mentor Graphics Embedded Software Division. "These types
of UI customizations are critical for people using Android beyond
mobile handsets since it requires tremendous effort without
Mentor's comprehensive, vendor-independent technologies and
services for new and innovative products."

Platform UI for Android is available now, starting at $39,000 USD
