Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for using an application platform to design an application, an interface for developing an application is displayed at a computer system, the interface including a plurality of components for use in visually designing the application. A selection of a component is received at the interface. A placement of the component in the application is received within the interface. The application is compiled such that the application executes natively on a target processor, and where the application is bound directly to a native graphics library associated with the target processor. A style selection for the component of the application is received, the style selection modifying an appearance of the component. The application including the style selection is executed within the interface during design time such that the component is rendered according to the style selection without re-compiling the application.

Abstract: A computer-usable storage medium having instructions embodied therein that when executed cause a computer system to perform a method for using an application platform for designing an application. An interface for developing an application is provided at a computer system. A plurality of components are provided at the interface for use in visually designing the application. A selection of a component from the plurality of components is received at the interface. A placement of the component in the application is received within the interface. The application is compiled with the component and the placement of the component such that the application executes natively on a target processor, and wherein the application is bound directly to a native graphics library associated with the target processor.

Abstract: Disclosed are a gesture recognition method, a non-transitory computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for executing the gesture recognition method, a computing device, and a control device. The gesture recognition method includes receiving signals of a plurality of motion features; detecting a variable gesture frame from the signals; extracting a feature sample from the variable gesture frame; and determining a gesture command corresponding to the extracted feature sample.
