SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
InvenSense,
Inc. (NYSE: INVN), a leading provider of MEMS sensor platforms, today
announced that Gionee, one of China's largest smart phone manufacturers,
selected the InvenSense ICS-40720 for its latest flagship smartphone,
the Gionee S8. InvenSense's ICS-40720 is an ultra-low noise microphone
that provides superior audio video experience. As mobile devices
continue to gain traction as consumers' primary means of video capture,
the availability of gyro-enhanced electronic image stabilization and the
ability to capture equally high quality audio has OEMs seeking the best
combination of solutions available. The ICS-40720's class-leading 70dB
signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance enables such an experience. Low
noise performance is particularly important in multi-microphone
applications, where precise matched sets are used to clearly record
voice and music, separating them from ambient noise, for example in a
live recording or school play.
The pro-level low noise performance of the InvenSense ICS-40720
microphone is also highly beneficial in use cases where the mobile
device is utilized as a speakerphone, such as a conference room or group
setting. The ICS-40720 solution is able to clearly capture the user's
voice, even at a distance, providing greater freedom of movement and
placement.
Such use cases are not the exclusive domain of mobile phones; customers
of wearable and IoT platforms have also sought a solution to recognize
voice commands across varying distances in the natural course of use.
The InvenSense ICS-40720 enables a primary means of control for these
devices and enhances end-user satisfaction in natural use scenarios.
"Gionee required superior audio capture performance in far-field use
cases, specifically quality audio capture during video and conference
calling. The InvenSense solution enabled Gionee S8's far-field audio
recorder quality to match its improved video quality during video
recording mode, thus facilitating Gionee to set its S8 apart with a
differentiated audio experience," said Eitan Medina, vice president
marketing and product management at InvenSense. "We are pleased that
Gionee, a company devoted to developing innovative smart phones and one
of the world's top 10 smartphone makers, shipping to more than 50
countries worldwide, has partnered with InvenSense for its innovative
audio solutions."
InvenSense's ICS-40720 is available now in production quantities in
bottom port package configuration. For additional information about the
