LINSOL, based in South Korea, builds an acoustic detection system called Carang for industrial, mobility, and security use. The platform uses meta-structure sound amplification, 360-degree acoustic sensing, and selective beamforming to locate objects and issue alerts in conditions where cameras, LiDAR, and RF sensors are limited. The founding team previously worked on related defense research at Hanwha Aerospace.
