InvenSense™ Introduces World's First Integrated 7-Axis MEMS MotionTracking™ Platform

InvenSense, Inc. (NYSE:INVN), the leading provider of MotionTracking^™ system on chip (SoC) and Sound devices, introduces the ICM-20728, the world's first integrated 7-axis (3-axis gyroscope + 3-axis accelerometer + pressure sensor) single chip platform solution with onboard Digital Motion Processor (News - Alert) (DMP^™). For the first time, a single SoC delivers MotionTracking with absolute and relative altitude change for navigation, health and fitness applications. The new InvenSense 7-axis platform targets mobile and wearable devices such as smartphones, tablets, fitness bands, and smart watches.

The new ICM-20728 SoC underscores InvenSense's 'AlwaysOn' vision by consuming approximately 2mW of power with full 7-axis and DMP active. This fully autonomous 7-axis motion tracking solution combines our industry leading gyroscope and accelerometer with a fully integrated pressure sensor, InvenSense's third generation DMP, algorithms, and delivers new features, such as:

• Self calibration for continuous high performance over extended lifetime
• Activity classification and analysis for fitness and context aware applications
• Altimeter function for indoor/outoor 3D navigation

"InvenSense's integrated 7-axis platform with embedded processing is another technological breakthrough for the MEMS industry," said Ali Foughi, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at InvenSense. "With this device, InvenSense enables a new class of 'AlwaysOn' applications and services, such as indoor navigation, activity tracking and fitness."

Sampling of the InvenSense ICM-20728 will commence within the first half of 2014. InvenSense is exhibiting in booth # D61 in Hall 7 at the 2014 Mobile World Congress (News - Alert) taking place in Barcelona, Spain from February 24 - 27, 2014.
