QtinUse - Networked, GUI-Driven Automation
summary
Claim: a framework that turns heterogeneous field buses and legacy devices into a single controllable cloud using concrete gateways and a small set of tools. Uses Qt for UI and logic, XML + JavaScript as the device description and scripting layer, and Intel Atom / ARM gateways that run the SAN abstraction. Implements a virtual bus that maps dozens of protocols to unified objects, ships an Atom touchscreen prototype, powers deployed projects (surveillance, factory monitoring), and reuses ~90% of features from Qt to cut time to market.
