Mediaware is widely recognized as the global leader in the development of advanced digital video processing systems and solutions. The company was founded in 1996 by three research scientists from CSIRO, Australia’s peak R&D body. They had conducted ground breaking research in the areas of compressed video (MPEG) and image processing, and left CSIRO to commercialize this technology.

Over the past several years Mediaware has developed and built unique products that allow our customers to do things with compressed video that they never thought possible, including:


Mediaware has developed and sells "COTS" (commercial off-the-shelf systems and software) to our customers in the Broadcast and Defence/Intelligence sectors.

We also incorporate our technologies into made-to-order systems to meet unique customer requirements.
