STMicroelectronics announced that its advanced motion and proximity sensors have been integrated in the OnePlus 2, the newest smartphone from a leading Chinese mobile maker.

The 2015 flagship model, OnePlus 2, relies on ST sensors for its camera system performance that includes an ultra-fast 0.2s “human-eye” -grade focus time and advanced optical anti-shake technology, which delivers a 20% improvement in effective image resolution, as well as a 55% reduction in power consumption compared with standard optical anti-shake mobile-camera systems.

ST’s L2G2IS gyroscope powers the optical image stabilization (OIS) in the OnePlus 2, improving sharpness in low-light pictures and removing shake from mobile videos. The two-axis MEMS gyro integrates a special sensing element that provides the measured angular rate to the camera through a digital interface. ST’s VL6180 proximity sensor enhances the camera’s auto-focus performance in the OnePlus 2.

Enabling the 360-degree camera feature and improving gesture control and mobile-gaming experience for OnePlus 2 users, ST also provides a sensor system-in-package (LSM330) consisting of a 3D digital accelerometer with two programmable embedded state machines and a 3D digital gyroscope.

“The increasing penetration of advanced sensor-based features in smartphones at all price points drives the demand for MEMS and sensor devices in fast-developing markets, like China’s,” said Collins Wu, director of Analog, MEMS and Sensors Group, Greater China and South Asia Region, STMicroelectronics.
