AI-enhanced smart accelerometers pack four performance modes
Summary
Leveraging STMicroelectronics third-generation MEMS technology, the accelerometers accurately detect events and gestures with high accuracy and low power consumption. The new smart accelerometers support a range of "always-aware" applications, including wearable devices, game controllers, portable healthcare devices, asset trackers, and wireless sensor nodes. These AI-enhanced devices also include a machine learning core with adaptive self-configuration, offloading host processing and enabling faster system responses. The LIS2DUX12 MEMS and ASIC combine low current consumption with always-on anti-aliasing filtering and a finite state machine. The LIS2DUXS12 AI-enhanced smart accelerometer includes STMicroelectronics Qvar sensing channel and analogue hub, which senses changes in the ambient electrostatic environment to enable presence and proximity detection.
