InvenSense Announces Collaboration With Panasonic finance.yahoo.com
InvenSense, Inc. (INVN), a leading provider of MEMS sensor platforms, today announced a collaboration with Panasonic Corporation for the development of innovative sensor technology solutions and of new automotive safety high-performance MEMS-based inertial sensors. The new 6-axis (3-axis accelerometer + 3-axis gyroscope) safety inertial sensor is the industry’s smallest size and facilitates system miniaturization for safety applications, such as rollover detection and electronic stability control. The new safety inertial sensor, currently sampling, supports the most demanding low-bias drift, low-sensitivity drift, and high-vibration robustness performance requirements.
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), safety improvements, improved comfort, and personalized in-vehicle experiences are accelerating the need for better sensor technologies. Furthermore, automakers and system integrators are increasingly looking for innovation to improve system reliability, lower system cost, and reduce time to market. Panasonic’s leadership position in the automotive market with established channels, in-depth insight into automotive development and InvenSense’s high volume fabrication platform and high performance MEMS-based motion tracking devices are providing substantial benefits to the automotive markets, including: |
