About

www.autol.co.krCo-founder and CTO of AutoL, a spinoff HYUNDAI inner start-up with a unique approach to LiDAR for self-driving vehicles. Our LiDARs are automotive qualified and reasonable price product for mass production autonomous driving vehicle. The products have good long range performance for the full horizontal field of view.AutoL's competitiveness is the experience and know-how of former automotive engineers. Using AutoL's special high-sensitivity transmission and reception technology, the size and price of lidar have been greatly reduced. It was developed to perfectly satisfy the delicate environmental durability specifications of automobiles. Based on these technologies and products, we can grow into a specialized lidar sensor company. We will fulfill our corporate social responsibility by leading the popularization of autonomous driving.
