Velodyne Acoustics GmbH, commonly known as Velodyne, is a company that makes subwoofers and related products and was originally founded by David Hall in Silicon Valley, California, in 1983 and was then purchased in 2019 by Audio Reference of Hamburg, Germany, and its owner Mansour Mamaghani.
The company also historically produced some headphone products and had a division called Velodyne Lidar that produced Lidar products and a division called Velodyne Marine that developed a boat stabilization technology. Velodyne founder David Hall spun off Velodyne Lidar as a separate company in 2016.[1] Velodyne Marine is now also a separate company headquartered in Alameda, California, that remains owned by David Hall.[2]
As of February 2022, the post-acquisition Velodyne Acoustics company's described technologies included only subwoofers and subwoofer-related technology.[3]
