HiWave Technologies PLC was a UK-based manufacturer of audio and haptic-based products. It developed haptic control and high efficiency audio applications as well as speaker drivers and haptic feedback actuators.

The company was formed in December 2010 following the merger of Audium Semiconductor and NXT.

The company went into administration on 6 March 2013 and was delisted from the London Stock Exchange on 8 March 2013.

The audio division of HiWave Technologies plc was subsequently bought-out, and became HiWave Technologies (UK) Ltd in May 2013, whilst the haptics division was relaunched shortly afterwards as Redux Labs.
