Combo IC integrates digital accelerometer, analogue gyro

摘要

STMicroelectronics unveils a module that combines a three-axis digital accelerometer with a two-axis analogue gyroscope. The package-level integration of linear and angular motion sen-sors improves performance, boosts reliability, reduces size and shrinks cost, enabling new possibilities for high-precision gesture and motion recognition in mobile phones, remote controllers, personal navigation systems and other portable devices. MEMS motion sensors add an intuitive man-machine interface to mobile phones, portable multimedia players, game controllers, personal navigation systems and remote input devices, creating interaction by linking the user's wrist, arm, and hand movements to applications, navigation within and between menus, the movement of characters in a game and much more.
