Amulet Celebrates 25 Years of UX Innovation
(Campbell, California - August 28, 2023) Silicon Valley-based company, Amulet Technologies, proudly celebrates its 25th anniversary as an industry leader and inventor of smart displays. The smart display was an innovation that began with the novel idea of revolutionizing the front panel of everyday things and transforming it into a visual and enjoyable interactive experience. Amulet has revolutionized how we interact and experience various devices, such as medical instruments, gas station pumps, HVAC controls, and more. From its inception, the guiding mission and vision has always been to make the experience of using everyday devices a magical one, invoking a sentiment of amazement. Beginning in the summer of 1998, with the guiding principle of “Everyday things, amazing experiences”, Amulet set out to change the world of embedded systems. At the time, web design was the domain of graphic artists, and the lingua franca for creating visually appealing and interactive web pages was HTML. Recognizing this industry direction, Amulet set out to bring a similar creative development process to embedded systems. With the creation of an Amulet ASIC, powered by Graphical OS in SiliconTM, along with its proprietary HTMLcompilerTM, Amulet introduced to the industry the ability to author with HTML a customer facing graphical user interface, forever changing the front panel design of embedded system devices. The following decades saw the introduction of the AOB (Amulet on BoardTM) smart display modules, GEMstudioTM development platform, and bright and colorful GEMmodulesTM, all with the purpose of bringing a unique and magical user experience to everyday things. "Over the past 25 years, we saw embedded systems migrate from being hidden inside physical products, to the human facing external skin of the product,” said Amulet’s Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Ken Klask. “Back then, the sole role of the embedded microcontroller was to make things work better. In today’s innovative products, the microcontroller has come to the surface to provide the magic to engage users and make the product a joy to work with. It’s been an honor and a thrill to be on the forefront of this evolution and I am excited about the potential of innovative products to come.” Amulet extends its heartfelt gratitude to its customers, partners, and employees who have joined in our 25-year odyssey toward the digital transformation of everyday things. In a world of voice and gesture controls, smart homes, and self-driving cars, Amulet is excited to continue to create exceptional user experiences, championing partner’s brands and individuality. We invite you to look out for more inspiring and exciting announcements to come as we strive in leaving an indelible mark on the world through user experiences. The journey continues.
