Dirac

Founded in 2001 by researchers from the Signals & Systems Group at Uppsala University, Sweden, Dirac Research emerged from two professors and four Ph.D. students with a vision to unleash the full potential of sound in every audio system worldwide. Co-founded by Dr. Mathias Johansson who served as CEO from 2009-2021, the company specializes in advanced digital signal processing and room correction technology through their flagship Dirac Live software. Headquartered in Uppsala, Sweden, with R&D facilities in Copenhagen, Denmark, and Bangalore, India, plus representation in Greater China, Germany, Japan, Korea, and the United States, Dirac has become one of Sweden's fastest-growing audio tech companies. Under new CEO Anders Storm (industry veteran replacing Peter Friedrichsen in 2024), the company serves prestigious clients including BMW, Bentley, Rolls Royce, Volvo, and Datasat Digital Entertainment, focusing primarily on automotive and home audio industries. Dirac's patented technology corrects both frequency and impulse response, addressing tonal balance and ensuring clean transient sound reproduction without smearing or delay, distinguishing it from basic EQ systems. The company actively collaborates with leading audio manufacturers worldwide to enhance dynamics, clarity, and immersive sound experiences across diverse environments. With 5,215 LinkedIn followers and active global recruitment, Dirac continues expanding its digital room correction technology integration across premium audio markets, maintaining its position as a leader in audio optimization software that dramatically improves listening experiences through scientific acoustic analysis and correction.
