Drew saw Rajesh Lal, Nokia Meego Engineer, give a talk at Flourish on QML & Javascript for building UIs.

I know for our Biosesnor Array we will need to have some type of
interface to display data on a computer and hopefully smartphone. The
default computer visualization interface for Arduino projects tends to
be Processing. I think that would work well on a full blown computer
but not sure about smartphones. \

After talking with Rajesh, QML may be a nice alternative as it looks
to be a easy way to create an app that runs both on a desktop and
smartphones with Qt support. I'll have to see if there is any
accessibility for iPhone & Android.
