Arbutus Media Technologies

Cloud-native broadcast technology

We develop GPU-accelerated software for live broadcast, in two parts: a real-time graphics system, and a high-quality cloud processing workflow. Our customers are broadcasters, live sports production and content owners. We also provide engineering and consulting services in the same field.

Graphics

A cloud-native graphics system that treats broadcast and the web as one problem. Designs come from the animation tools designers already use, so there is no proprietary authoring application to learn. One description renders on the GPU to professional video with full alpha and to the browser, driven from an operator panel, or by live data when a feed is connected. See it for every screen, and test the HDR difference on your phone.

Cloud processing

A high-quality processing workflow built on the open standards JPEG XS and TAMS: a JPEG XS decoder written in Rust that runs on both x86 and ARM, MPEG-TS and ISO BMFF containers, and a Premiere Pro plugin that edits cloud recordings without downloading them first.

Who it's for

Broadcasters, rights holders and federations, live sports production companies, post-production, and cloud playout providers.
