ToF sensors advances use less energy or double range
Metasurface lens technology is introduced by STMicroelectronics in its second generation, FlightSense multi-zone direct time of flight (ToF) sensor. The VL53L8 uses less energy and can range twice as far as existing products, said the company.
Sensor tracks motion and orientation for IoT and metaverse
Sensor fusion for motion tracking, heading and orientation detection is provided by the FSP201 low power sensor hub microcontroller released by Ceva. It is designed for use in consumer robotics and smart devices which use motion tracking and orientation such as 3D audio headsets or XR (extended reality, or augmented, virtual and mixed reality) glasses. They can also be used in six-axis motion use cases across the IoT and the metaverse.
