Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 27286, member: 2262"] SK keyfoundry just released amazing new sensor tech that sees magnetic fields from all angles. This Korean company makes 8-inch chips and has created a 3D Hall-effect sensor that tracks how things move through space. Their sensors measure tiny changes in voltage when magnets pass near semiconductors. These measurements help devices figure out their position, movement speed, spin rate, and which way they're pointing. The company already made simpler sensors that detected magnetic fields in one or two dimensions. Their latest breakthrough puts both Vertical and Planar sensors together on a single chip. This combo creates super-sensitive equipment that responds instantly to the smallest movements in any direction. Customers can easily add this technology to their products because it works with existing manufacturing steps - they just need to add a few masks to the process. The sensors work perfectly across different manufacturing sizes from 0.13μm to 0.18μm without losing any performance. Car makers want these sensors for safety systems and self-driving features. Electronics companies need them for smart home devices and gaming systems. Factories can use them to control robots and drones. The tech even helps power virtual reality headsets and fitness trackers people wear every day. Derek D. Lee runs SK keyfoundry, and he believes these sensors will change many industries. He pointed out that their high sensitivity makes them perfect for detecting tiny movements in three dimensions. His team plans to keep sharing new technology with customers. They want to help companies pack more functions into single chips as the technology keeps improving. [/QUOTE]
