HRL and Boeing recently demonstrated a state-of-the-art 40-nm GaN on silicon carbide. This new technology can deliver RF performance for space applications as well as 5G/6G and more.

HRL will develop embedded sensors for wireless structural health monitoring of load-bearing components in a new DARPA project. By embedding sensors during additive manufacturing processing, HRL aims to monitor stress and temperature of critical components to monitor loading and detect damage while also protecting the sensor from a harsh operating environment.

Today, we welcome our new CEO, Roberto (Rob) Vasquez. Rob brings with him a strong commitment to advancing our mission of pioneering cutting-edge research and technology. With his leadership, we are confident HRL will continue to thrive and deploy new technologies to advance our customers’ missions.

HRL Laboratories will develop a new generation of electrically tunable, long-wavelength superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) as part of a DARPA project which will enable a much wider variety of applications for the technology.

Penrose (Parney) C. Albright, Ph.D. announced that his planned retirement as President & CEO of HRL Laboratories, LLC, will be effective on July 5, 2024. He joined HRL in November 2014 as CEO and oversaw the organization through significant growth and expansion over nearly ten years. Roberto Vasquez, Ph.D. will assume the company’s President & …

For more than 75 years HRL Laboratories has pushed the boundaries on what’s possible. Successful innovation fuels the company’s current growth and what started as a single Malibu laboratory is thriving with multiple locations diving into a wide variety of scientific disciplines.

Dr. Paul G. Kaminski served as HRL Laboratories’ Chairman of the Board from 2004 until 2023. That’s 19 years – nearly two decades of leadership excellence and unwavering guidance that helped the organization thrive. With a profound influence on HRL’s success and culture, Dr. Kaminski championed HRL to push the boundaries of innovation.

HRL Laboratories continues to advance curved sensor technology with new funding from DARPA to build an ambitious, first-of-its-kind test camera featuring curved infrared imaging sensors that make wide field-of-view imaging a reality.

HRL Laboratories and UCLA will collaborate on a project to scale-up silicon-based quantum processors. “Achieving this would allow quantum computing to piggy-back off of existing semiconductor infrastructure and allow the technology to be produced at scale in a way that has never been done before,” according to the project lead.

For the second year in a row, Built In announced that HRL Laboratories appears on its 2024 Best Places To Work Awards. Specifically, HRL earned a place on Best Places to Work in Los Angeles, CA as well as Best Midsize Companies (101-1000 employees), Los Angeles, CA. The annual awards program includes companies of all sizes, from startups and smaller organizations to mature enterprises of all sizes, and honors both predominantly remote as well as site-based employers in large tech markets across the U.S.
