Infragistics, the experience design software company and world leader in user interface (UI) development tools,  today announced product innovations and enhancements to help developers and designers build better UI experiences.

“At Infragistics we use an agile design process; we have multi-discipline teams across the globe which build our design & development software tools resulting in exceptional user experiences,” said Jason Beres, vice president of Product Management at Infragistics. “Developers can use our Motion Framework to animate, or ‘play’, data over time which enhances the analysis experience that leads to new business insight of information.”

The new Motion Framework API, integrated into Infragistics Silverlight and WPF xamDataChart, enables XAML (Silverlight and WPF) developers to visually animate business intelligence data over time giving the end user richer insight into their data through an interactive and engaging experience.

The simplicity and ease of use of the Motion Framework is illustrated in two new Infragistics reference applications, World maps, a real-world reference application deployed on Microsoft’s Windows Azure cloud-computing platform that tracks video play statistics and usage and Worldstats, enabling users to add publicly available data sets to a comparative analysis. Both reference applications demonstrate how to program data visualizations with the Motion Framework, geospatial map and data chart.

The Motion Framework is accessible now to customers with subscriptions to NetAdvantage Ultimate, WPF Data Visualization or Silverlight Data Visualization toolsets. Customer interested in upgrading their subscription can visit: http://www.infragistics.com/dotnet/netadvantage/ultimate.aspx.

Before software code is written multi-disciplinary teams can engage Quince Pro, Infragistics design review tool, to review, understand and collaborate on projects.  Several new and enhanced features such as Design Boards, SharePoint Integration, and Pattern Sharing between Libraries, help interaction design, visual design and development teams focus on the activities, artifacts and capabilities to streamline the understanding of designs. Through the use of threaded discussions, design boards and pattern associations, a comprehensive library around the design intent of the project can be created which is critical to building software with the best end user experience possible.
