Google ATAP demonstrated some of the first potential applications for the technology – including gesture recognition and presence detection – at the Google I/O Developers Conference, held last week in San Francisco.
"Infineon is a recognised leader in radar based sensor ICs, providing component and system-level solutions for consumer, automotive safety, industrial and commercial sensing and machine vision applications – markets that are expected to grow significantly in the coming years," said Philipp Schierstaedt, general manager of Infineon's RF and Sensors business.
The sensor is said to be compact and low power, suitable for integration in mobile and fixed devices. Alongside Infineon's transceiver technology, the sensor is also said to include an RF transceiver, antenna and control electronics.
