Widget Designer

Widget Designer is a customizable control framework that lets you create dedicated user interfaces and interaction logic through visual control component connections. 

The rich feature-set lets you create customized show-control scenarios, and the simple script makes programming efficient and effective. The intuitive interface enables even non-programming specialists to create truly immersive, interactive experiences. 

A world of creative possibilities  

With the embedded node programming environment, you can set up almost any possible control scenario, from sensor and data source interaction to route input data to almost any other output protocol. 

And Widget Designer's HTML-5 based frontend lets you style your own individual user-interfaces with CSS styles. 

Let Widget Designer do the work 

The rich feature-set lets you manually control, automate, or provide customers with remote-control interfaces in public environments, so you can track applications and immersive installations.
