Exemplifies Ultra-Low Power, ‘AlwaysOn’
features of Activity Classifier, Wake-Up Sensors, Device Context
Gestures, and Improved Imaging Experience
InvenSense, Inc. (NYSE:INVN), the leading provider of
intelligent sensor system on chip (SoC) for Motion and Sound,
announced the introduction of the ICM-20648. The 6-axis ICM-20648
SoC combines InvenSense’s latest enhanced proprietary Digital
Motion Processor™ (DMP) engine with InvenSense’s MotionApps™
software and algorithms for on-chip activity classification, device
context gesture detection, pedometer functionality, run-time
calibration, and 6 and 9 axis sensor fusion all running on the DMP.
The DMP is a performance and power optimized motion processor;
leveraging the DMP and InvenSense’s proprietary algorithms, the ICM
garners a 2x - 8x power saving in the processor alone. This results
in up to 25% - 50% lower system power than the competition and
improved battery life for the end-user; for instance with a 300mAH
battery, a device could run a classifier for up to two months and
pedometer for up to four months.
The InvenSense ICM-20648’s embedded motion hub solution is
designed to offload the complex protocol processing and event
filtering necessary to provide on-chip ‘AlwaysOn’ contextual
awareness, reducing system cost and complexity, and eliminating the
need for additional sensor hub processing ICs. The ICM-20648 SoC
has been designed to meet or exceed all new Android Compatibility
Test Suite (CTS) sensor requirements for power, performance, and
timing accuracy in Android 5.0. The ICM-20648’s integrated hardware
and software solution includes a gyroscope, accelerometer and
Digital Motion Processor, targeting next-generation smartphones,
tablets, fitness devices, watches, and wearables that run Android
5.0 and Android Wear.
InvenSense’s imaging solutions’ industry-leading motion
sensitivity is currently benefiting almost every major smart phone
manufacturer in the world. With the release of the new ICM-20648,
InvenSense is now enabling this industry leading sensitivity
performance for classification, context detection and gesture
detection. The InvenSense ICM-20648 also exhibits reduced noise and
offset performance in both the accelerometer and gyroscope by
30%-50%. Together, InvenSense’s enhancements to sensitivity, noise
and offset performance will improve the accuracy of nearly any
motion application.
“Included in the new ICM-20648 is InvenSense’s advanced FSYNC
solution, which improves image stabilization, measuring true
movement of the camera and enables hardware based timing alignment
of imaging and motion subsystems to synchronize timing such that
motion compensation of the image is more accurate, reducing the
software complexity for the OEM, and generating a better imaging
experience for the end user,” said Ali Foughi, Vice President of
Marketing and Business Development at InvenSense. “With no added
system cost, the new ICM-20648 enables our customers to create a
differentiated imaging experience with a simple plug and play
process.”
The InvenSense ICM-20648 solution is available in early Q2 for
sampling. InvenSense is exhibiting in booth #D61 in Hall 7 at
the 2015 Mobile World Congress taking place in Barcelona, Spain
from March 2 - 5, 2015. To schedule press and partner meetings at
