– Quattro H-class sets new standard for high accuracy clinical grade motion analysis and gesture tracking in clinical trials, action sports, robotics, and augmented and virtual reality –
Redwood City, Calif. – WEBWIRE – Thursday, April 21, 2016
Sensoplex Inc., a world leader in the design, development, and production of high performance, precision wearable and IoT devices, today announced the availability of Quattro H-class, the company’s most advanced and most accurate 32-bit wearable hardware and software development platform with wireless connectivity. The platform boasts an unprecedented level of precision previously not achievable by existing wearable devices and is ideal for demanding applications where accuracy is critical, such as clinical trials, active sports, robotics, and augmented and virtual reality.
The Quattro H-class platform combines cutting edge Intelligent Sensor Interpretation technology and advanced system design from Sensoplex, with a precision-tuned sensor array from Hillcrest Labs that features proprietary sensor fusion algorithms to eliminate sensor drift. Sensor drift is an issue that plagues all motion sensors and reduces their precision. By leveraging Hillcrest Labs proprietary algorithms, Quattro H-class is able to consistently and continuously maintain an extremely high accuracy performance. Sensoplex’s Intelligent Sensor Interpretation translates and further enhances sensor readings into clinical grade, highly accurate real world measurements that are applicable to the target application such as high accuracy human motion analysis for clinical trials.
“The combination of software and system design expertise from Sensoplex matched with sensor processing know-how and solutions from Hillcrest Labs have led to the introduction of the Quattro H-class,” said Chad Lucien, SVP sales and marketing at Hillcrest Labs, “Our customers are clamoring for a complete solution that combines world-class sensor processing, low power RF communications and a compact design. We are excited to be working with Sensoplex to pave the way for new, innovative wearable and IoT applications.”
The Quattro H-class Platform offers the following features:
Multiple power modes for ultra-low power operations
ARM Cortex M4 32-Bit Microcontroller for system and sensor hub programming
Sensoplex Intelligent Sensor Interpretation technology

Micro-USB connectivity for data and charging
Analog microphone
32 MB of Flash memory expandable up to 512 GB
Programmable RGB LED indicator
Programmable purpose I/O
Optional buzzer
14-pin expansion connector for additional sensors, interfacing to other boards, general purpose I/O and debugging
“We are extremely pleased to partner with Hillcrest Labs to deliver the world’s most accurate sensor platform,” said Hamid Farzaneh, CEO of Sensoplex, Inc. “The Quattro H-class forms the highest accuracy member of our highly customizable Quattro family of platforms. This platform is specifically tailored to wearable and IoT applications demanding superior performance and high accuracy such as clinical trials (musculoskeletal, neurological, motor control, etc.), robotics, active sports, and other motion tracking activities such as augmented and virtual reality.”
The Sensoplex Quattro H-class is available as an evaluation kit and development platform allowing customers to quickly develop innovative wearable or IoT applications that can combine inertial, bio and environmental sensors, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and ANT+ wireless protocols with ultra-low-power processing. Sensoplex solves a major issue for companies that are entering the IoT and wearables space: the difficulty in rapidly bringing to market complex devices that require deep expertise in diverse technical areas. The Quattro manufacturing-ready platform can be mass-produced as is, or rapidly customized for different form factors and specifications.
