LONDON — European chipmaker STMicroelectronics NV, has announced that its tri-axis accelerometer is being used by Openmoko Inc. to provide motion-sensing functions in OpenMoko's Neo Freerunner Linux-based mobile phone platform.
Openmoko (Taipei, Taiwan) is a working on delivering mobile phones with an open source software stack. The company is currently selling the Neo Freerunner phone to advanced users and application developers.
The Neo Freerunner is a GSM tri-band mobile phone with a VGA touch screen, 2D/3D graphics acceleration, 256-Mbytes of NAND flash memory, Wi-Fi, AGPS, and Bluetooth 2.0, as well as tri-axis motion sensing. The Openmoko GNU/Linux-based software stack is 100 percent free open-source software (FOSS), supported by GNU/Linux development tools.
"ST's accelerometers, such as the LIS302DL, and gyroscopes, such as the LY530AL, are widely used to enable advanced motion-sensing functions, such as portrait/landscape rotation, pedometer, and menu browsing and now the open source community will be able to create even more new applications that exploit our motion-sensing technology," said Benedetto Vigna, general manager of ST's MEMS and Sensors, Transceivers and Healthcare division.
"In addition to its role as a mobile phone, developers are embracing the open hardware, open software and open CAD of the Openmoko platform to create a wide range of new products in applications such as healthcare, industrial, tourism, communications, entertainment and scientific visualization and motion-sensing will play a key role in many of them," said Steve Mosher, vice president of marketing at Openmoko.

手機使用加速規已不是什麼稀奇的事情了
而Openmoko除了是一種開放原始碼的Linux手機外，Openmoko也是大眾轉投資的公司，
他們除了提供開放式的平台外，也有生產手機
所以代表在不久之後會看到吧!!
