Building the identity layer for manufacturing.
Origin
From R&D to production.
LASE-X's core laser technology was developed and validated inside Panasonic. LASE-X spun out in 2024 with that technology and two utility patents, giving the company a proven technical foundation rather than a concept built from scratch.
