Fullpower Introduces the MotionX-Recognition Engine for Mass Market Devices


CARLSBAD, CA--(Marketwire - May 27, 2009) - All Things Digital -- Over the past five years Fullpower has developed the MotionX-Recognition Engine, designed to accurately solve the challenges of gesture recognition, pedestrian navigation, and image stabilization among others.

"In a nutshell, the MotionX-Recognition Engine is to motion what a great speech recognition engine is to speech," said Philippe Kahn CEO of Fullpower, makers of MotionX.

At the D7 conference Fullpower presented the world premiere of two real-world implementations of the MotionX-Recognition Engine:

  • Presentation 1, The MotionX-Headset: Complete motion user experience and gesture recognition as well as pedestrian navigation. TapTap™ commands, ShakeShake® commands, power management and accurate measurement of distance and speed traveled using pure accelerometrics.


  • Presentation 2, MotionX-Imaging: Full image stabilization using pure smartphone accelerometrics (something that is reputed impossible to do without expensive specialized sensors and electronics). This solution scales infinitely to very high resolution imaging sensors.

Based in Silicon Valley, Fullpower is the world leader for mobile sensing solutions and develops technology and IP with an embedded licensing business model.

Background:

The Nintendo Wii as well as screen rotation on the iPhone are examples of simple implementations of motion sensing in mass market devices. To build more advanced sensing solutions, the challenge is similar to that of speech recognition: It takes a lot of technology to get it right. Enter the Fullpower MotionX-Recognition Engine.
