Pixart to Ship Gesture Recognition Sensors

Digitimes: Pixart expects its sales to return to a growth in Q2 2013 and see its revenues rise by 10-15% sequentially in the quarter, according to company CFO Mei-wei Lo. Q3 revenues will be even better due to increasing shipments of gesture recognition chips, ambient light sensors, and niche-type CMOS imaging sensors, Lo added. Pixart will begin shipping its gesture recognition chips to clients in the second half of the second quarter, which will help ramp up gross margin, according to Lo.
