SensorStudio Development Tool Used to Ease the
Design and Programming of the InvenSense FireFly Platform
InvenSense, Inc. (NYSE:INVN), a leading provider of MEMS sensor
platforms, announced the new SensorStudio 2.1 release and the new
ICM-30670 FireFly development kit, a sensor prototyping and
development platform for Internet of Things (IoT) and drones
applications. The InvenSense IoT development platform is comprised
of InvenSense’s ICM-30670 MEMS 6-axis sensor (3-axis gyroscope +
3-axis accelerometer) with an integrated sensor framework software
interfacing with an Arduino Zero board. The new ICM-30670 supports
up to 1 kHz data rate to the host MCU satisfying the needs for high
data throughput applications, such as drones. With SensorStudio and
the FireFly development kit, developers are able to select and
evaluate the FireFly embedded features (orientation, activity
tracking, gestures, etc.), enable quick design and validate
embedded features. The new InvenSense development platform
simplifies even further, the configuration and extension of the
FireFly SensorHub Framework, bringing a unique level of
simplification and integration to build smart IoT applications
faster.
SensorStudio is a powerful graphical development tool originated
by InvenSense to ease the development and programming of sensors
and algorithms. SensorStudio provides the environment for extending
and customizing FireFly capabilities, supplying standard sensor
block functions derived from its sensor framework software.
SensorStudio visually assembles elements in a logical way and
accesses all the necessary visualizations to fully support the
sensor fusion design cycle. SensorStudio allows developers to
program and add sensors to the Sensor Framework via a documented
set of APIs to control I2C, GPIO, tasks and timers, while masking
the complexity of real-time OS. Using simple GUI sensors blocks,
SensorStudio can be arranged in elegant flow charts for developers
to run and validate their programs, facilitating the rapid
prototyping and application development for IoT applications.
The hardware element of the development kit is based on the
single-chip InvenSense ICM-30670, the tri-core 6-axis motion
tracking solution with integrated framework software serving as a
sensor hub that supports the collection and processing of data from
internal and external sensors. The integrated InvenSense Sensor
Framework provides an open and powerful platform for creating
cutting-edge always-on applications, allowing customers to leverage
InvenSense sensors and algorithms in order to build their own
products.
InvenSense’s new Firefly development kit is compatible with
Arduino hardware, GCC-based development tools and Eclipse IDE
debugger. InvenSense Studio 2.1 can now interface with other
Arduino equivalent IoT platforms, such as Raspberry Pie, ARTIK,
etc. by porting InvenSense bridge code to the selected development
environment. The development kit includes a fully self-contained
sensor software solution with additional memory space available on
chip, allowing customers to program with their own logic, creating
a platform that is easily scalable and deployable. The InvenSense
Sensor Framework keeps on being improved and optimized to bring
ever more flexibility, and benefiting from quality levels achieved
on large mobile & wearable deployments.
“We have seen an ever growing interest in our customers’ use of
SensorStudio as the sensors development platform for IoT
applications as well as for other markets,” said Eitan Median, vice
president marketing and product management, InvenSense.
“SensorStudio and associated development kits, are proving every
day our customers can rely on our tools flexibility to develop and
productize their own IoT platforms, achieving faster time to market
by leveraging InvenSense sensor fusion and our SensorHub
framework.”
SensorStudio and the FireFly Development Kit will be available
in June for purchase and download on InvenSense’s Developers Corner
website. The Studio platform will be exhibited in the InvenSense
booth in Hall N1, stand 1742 at the 2016 CES Asia event taking
place in Shanghai, China from May 11-13, 2016. To schedule press
and partner meetings at the show, contact pr@invensense.com.
