7 MAY 2011 issue n°112 THE DISRUPTIVE SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNOLOGIES MAGAZINE It’s not who you know today. It’s who you’re going to need to know tomorrow. The world of inertial devices is in a rapid state of change. Value is shifting. Players are changing. The entire industry of motion is in motion. While we all know the current players, our growth depends on meeting and engaging the emerging innovators. The world leader in MEMS technology information, Yole Développement, is harnessing the power and effi ciency of an exciting new networking and collaboration event. Not another tradeshow or conference, the MEMS in Motion Collaboration Summit promises the freedom to meet, learn, talk, and ultimately collaborate in a time-effi cient and casual environment. The Yole team will bring together industry leaders for this fi rst-of-a-kind, two-day event in Palm Springs. Qualifi ed attendees will enjoy exclusive Yole plenary sessions; small, facilitated roundtable discussions; and hours of small group and one-on-one discussion activities. If your business depends on—or will depend on—inertial devices, the MEMS in Motion Collaboration Summit is perfect for you.

2009-2015 Market Overview<br />

Overview<br />

The market for motion sensors is grow<strong>in</strong>g to<br />

more than $2.5B <strong>in</strong> 2015, correspond<strong>in</strong>g to<br />

4.5B sensor packages<br />

– One sensor package can conta<strong>in</strong> several sensors<br />

(combo sensors) market is actually 5.18B sens<strong>in</strong>g<br />

functions <strong>in</strong> 2015<br />

– 15.7% 2009-2015 CAGR <strong>in</strong> value, 24.4% <strong>in</strong> volume<br />

Mobile phone and gam<strong>in</strong>g are the biggest CE<br />

markets for motion sensors and combo<br />

sensors<br />

Remote control application will emerge<br />

slowly, with gam<strong>in</strong>g functions as a key feature<br />

Very high potential <strong>in</strong> the sports area, but it<br />

will take time to emerge, and it is a collection<br />

of plenty of niche applications<br />

MEMS Gyroscopes for Mobile Phones<br />

What’s next for gyropscopes after iPhone 4?<br />

• Now that appropriate Android drivers seem available, we start to see that the major<br />

handset makers release few models with gyroscopes<br />

Samsung Galaxy<br />

• Samsung Galaxy S Pro: <strong>first</strong> Android phone with a gyroscope?<br />

S Pro<br />

– Rumors said that this phone <strong>in</strong>tegrates a gyroscope. But it has not been confirmed<br />

– Also features an accelerometer, AGPS, compass<br />

– Named Epic 4G <strong>in</strong> USA, released by Spr<strong>in</strong>t<br />

• Released beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g 2011, the Google Nexus S <strong>in</strong>tegrates a gyro<br />

– This confirms the adoption of gyroscopes <strong>in</strong> high-end smartphones<br />

• LG Optimus Black: <strong>first</strong> handset design w<strong>in</strong> for InvenSense!<br />

Google Nexus S<br />

– This smartphone will <strong>in</strong>tegrate InvenSense’s ITG-3200 3 axis MEMS gyroscope for (manufactured by<br />

nice user <strong>in</strong>terface functions<br />

Samsung)<br />

– This design-w<strong>in</strong> from InvenSense on an Android phone shows that ST can expect<br />

strong competition<br />

• Other mobile phone makers:<br />

– HTC has revealed that they will release a gyroscope-equipped smartphone <strong>in</strong> mid<br />

2010<br />

LG Optimus<br />

– June 2010: the director of Motorola mobile division has announced that they are<br />

Black<br />

will<strong>in</strong>g to release a smartphone with a gyro by the end of 2010. But such a product<br />
