Unibrain - Company Profile

Unibrain was founded in 1990 in Athens and in 2000 it established Unibrain Inc. in San Ramon, California, USA, to promote, sell and support its customers in the United States.

Unibrain is a global leader in the development of FireWire (IEEE-1394) hardware and software solutions, and offers a complete line of FireWire products for a wide range of applications. Unibrain has been an active member of the 1394 Trade Association since 1997 and continues to play a vital role in the advancement of FireWire technology.

Unibrain’s FireWire products enable consumer electronics vendors, integrators and software companies to dynamically enter the FireWire market: to design, manufacture, and sell products that end users can start using today.

Unibrain’s development activity spans the entire gamut of hardware, firmware and software development. Development work is done with the latest diagnostic and analysis devices, while the firmware and software team has access to the best development tools. Careful analysis is done to determine what should be placed in hardware, firmware, and software, while all technical personnel are involved in the development process.

Unibrain recently expanded to new developments in storage and multimedia technologies by inventing iZAK, a multimedia storage device capable of playing recorded TV shows, downloaded films, home movies, music and photo galleries directly on any TV set, while at the same time, is a powerful external hard disk. In 2004 iZAK was awarded with “The Best of Retail Vision Awards” and since then Unibrain has proceeded in major commercial OEM agreements with leading international companies.

Since August 1999, Unibrain has developed a quality certification system in accordance with The International Standards Organization standard ISO 9001:2000. This quality certification system has been certified as conforming to the new standard.

As a result, Unibrain has adopted business practices requiring enhanced quality control on design, production, and after-sale service which exceed standard ISO 9001:1994. Unibrain has entered the twenty-first century with confidence and pride. We have every reason to expect the next years to be as productive and innovative as the last.
