SUNNYVALE, USA: InvenSense Inc., the leading solution provider of MotionProcessors for consumer electronics, announced that LG Electronics (LG) has selected the IXZ-500 dual-axis MEMS gyroscope for the Magic Motion Remote Control within their ultra-slim INFINIA line of LED-backlight LCD 3D TVs.

The LG Magic Motion Remote Control will be showcased in the InvenSense Meeting room #MP25370 in South Hall 2 at the 2011 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada from January 6th through the 9th. The Magic Motion remote control integrates a MEMS gyroscope and an innovative graphical user interface allowing for simple and intuitive hand movements to control motion-based navigation.
