Our story and mission for a better world

Our story
and mission
for a better world

AutoL Inc. was started in 2019 through Hyundai Motor’s in-house startup program,
and was spun off from Hyundai Motor Company in May 2021 and established under the current company name.

To overcome the limitations of the existing LiDAR market,
AutoL aims to apply to autonomous vehicles and industrial robots based on high resolution, small size,
and high price competitiveness.

The technological level has already reached the domestic leading level,
and we are striving for full-fledged commercialization through ‘active technological exchanges
and collaborations’ with car manufacturers, research institutes, and autonomous driving-related developers.
