Miniature 9-Axis Inertial Module with 32-bit Processing Unit from STMicroelectronics Boosts Realism and Accuracy in Gaming, Robotics and Navigation

News Update: Min 9-axis inertial module with 32-bit processing unit boosts realism & accuracy in gaming

The INEMO-M1 System-on-Board completely senses and assimilates linear acceleration, angular velocity, earth gravity and heading, enabling users to precisely detect their direction, orientation and movements in all three dimensions. The sensing accuracy can be further enhanced with the 32-bit processing unit’s capability to embed dedicated sensor-fusion software, integrating the outputs from all the sensors and employs sophisticated prediction and filtering algorithms to automatically correct measurement distortions and inaccuracies. “INEMO-M1 combines 9 degrees-of-freedom sensing with motion-data processing capabilities and a dedicated sensor-fusion algorithm,” said Matteo Lo Presti, Group Vice President in STMicroelectronics’ Industrial & Multisegment Sector. “This fully integrated and flexible solution is set to augment user experiences in a wide variety of applications,...
