Microflown AVISA

Microflown AVISA is a company specializing in passive, distributed, and unattended acoustic vector sensing capabilities for defense and security applications. Established in 2011, the company's flagship product is the Acoustic Multi Mission Sensor (AMMS), which offers favorable SWaP (size, weight, and power) features, enabling its use as an unattended ground sensor, on ground vehicles, and multi-copters. The primary feature that sets Microflown AVISA apart is the Microflown transducer, the world's first and only sensor that measures acoustic particle velocity instead of sound pressure. This unique approach allows the AMMS to detect, localize, track, and classify various audible events/platforms, including small arms fire, rockets, artillery, mortars, helicopters, drones, and heavy ground vehicles. The capabilities offered by the AMMS can be further enhanced by another sensor node platform, the Acoustic Pointer, which can be integrated into the network. The company provides networked capabilities such as compound protection, alerting and cueing radars towards hostile firing positions, sound ranging for localizing hostile artillery and rocket launchers' firing positions, and target practicing. Stand-alone capabilities include gunshot localization. Microflown AVISA's technologies cater to industries such as drones, logistics, manufacturing, transportation, and automotive. Although specific details about its headquarters, last investment, and last investment investors are not provided, the company's focus on innovative acoustic sensing technology demonstrates potential for growth and impact in the defense and security markets.
