Sensor Fusion of Twelve Inputs for Windows 8

July 2, 2012 By Randy Frank

At Sensors Expo 2012, Stephane Gervais-Ducouret, Director of Global Marketing for Freescale Semiconductor discusses sensor fusion software developed for Microsoft’s Windows 8. The software is demonstrated in a reference platform with 12 axes of sensor input information including 3-axis accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer as well as pressure, temperature and ambient light sensors. For more information […]

Proximity Sensing in a Vehicle’s Center Stack

November 8, 2010 By Randy Frank

At Convergence 2010 in Detroit Mich., Freescale Semiconductor’s Lydia Ziegler demonstrates how a software library controlled touch sensing can be used for slider and rotary switches in a vehicle’s center stack. The capacitive sensing uses simple metallic electrodes and the software completes the system. The software is an integral part of Freescale’s Xtrinsic touch sensing […]
