Abstract: A combined motion capturing system comprises multiple inertial sensor units (101), at least one communication unit (102), and a terminal processor (103). The inertial sensor units (101) are connected to the communication unit (102). The communication unit (102) is connected to the terminal processor (103). The inertial sensor units (101) are mounted at positions of one or more motion capture objects according to different combination modes, and measure motion information of the positions where the inertial sensor units (101) are mounted, and send the motion information to the communication unit (102). The communication unit (102) receives the motion information output by inertial sensors, and sends the motion information to the terminal processor (103). The terminal processor (103) acquires information about the motion capture objects and mounting position information of the inertial sensor units (101), generates combination modes of the inertial sensor units (101) according to the information of the motion capture objects and the mounting position information, receives the motion information sent by the communication unit (102), and processes the received motion information according to the combination modes to acquire complete postures and the motion information of the motion capture objects. By freely combining the same set of motion capturing devices, different motion capturing objectives are achieved, and the cost is reduced.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a MEMS device includes depositing an expandable material into a first recess of a cap wafer. The cap wafer includes a plurality of walls that surround and define the first recess and a second recess. The cap wafer is bonded to a MEMS wafer including a first MEMS device and a second MEMS device. The first MEMS device is encapsulated in the first recess, and the second MEMS device is encapsulated in the second recess. The expandable material is then heated to at least an activation temperature to cause the expandable material to expand after the first recess has been sealed. The expansion of the expandable material causes a reduction in volume of the first recess.

Abstract: This invention describes the structure and function of an integrated multi-sensing system. Integrated systems described herein may be configured to form a microphone, pressure sensor, gas sensor, multi-axis gyroscope or accelerometer. The sensor uses a variety of different Field Effect Transistor technologies (horizontal, vertical, Si nanowire, CNT, SiC and III-V semiconductors) in conjunction with MEMS based structures such as cantilevers, membranes and proof masses integrated into silicon substrates. It also describes a configurable method for tuning the integrated system to specific resonance frequency using electronic design.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming group III material-nitride (III-N) microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) structures on a group IV substrate, such as a silicon, silicon germanium, or germanium substrate. In some cases, the techniques include forming a III-N layer on the substrate and optionally on shallow trench isolation (STI) material, and then releasing the III-N layer by etching to form a free portion of the III-N layer suspended over the substrate. The techniques may include, for example, using a wet etch process that selectively etches the substrate and/or STI material, but does not etch the III-N material (or etches the III-N material at a substantially slower rate). Piezoresistive elements can be formed on the III-N layer to, for example, detect vibrations or deflection in the free/suspended portion of the III-N layer. Accordingly, MEMS sensors can be formed using the techniques, such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, and pressure sensors, for example.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a MEMS package having an outgassing element configured to adjust a pressure within a hermetically sealed cavity by inducing outgassing of into the cavity, and an associated method. In some embodiments, the method is performed by forming an outgassing element within a passivation layer over a CMOS substrate and forming an outgassing resistive layer to cover the outgassing element. The outgassing resistive layer is removed from over the outgassing element, and the MEMS substrate is bonded to a front side of the CMOS substrate to enclose a first MEMS device within a first cavity and a second MEMS device within a second cavity. After removing the outgassing resistive layer, the outgassing element releases a gas into the second cavity to increase a second pressure of the second cavity to be greater than a first pressure of the first cavity.
