CES: InvenSense offers 9-way mobile motion tracker Bernard Cole Las Vegas, Nev. – At the CES here, InvenSense, Inc. announced the availability of the MPU-9150, which the company clains is the world’s first fully integrated 9-axis MotionTracking device for mobile devices. Partnering with Asahi Kasei Microdevices, InvenSense has incorporated that company’s AK8975 compass with its MPU-6050, a single-chip gyroscope and accelerometer, to deliver the industry’s first 9-axis MotionTracking device in a small 4x4x1mm LGA package. InvenSense has also incorporated AKM’s compass calibration algorithms into its MotionApps software platform featuring 9-axis MotionFusion firmware. The MPU-9150 is compatible with the InvenSense MPU-6050 and MPU-3050 MotionProcessors. The MPU-9150 packages the InvenSense single chip 6-axis gyroscope and accelerometer with onboard Digital Motion Processor (DMP) hardware acceleration along with AKM’s 3-axis AK8975 E-Compass die. The 9-axis MotionFusion firmware combines raw accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer sensor output into a single sensor fusion data stream so developers can easily adopt motion interface functionality in their software applications. The circuits are sampling now and may find their way into consumer mobile devices by the end of the year. To learn more, go to www.invensense.com.
