AXIS Communications was the first company in the world to launch a network camera in 1996, thereby initiating the shift from analog to digital technology. Today AXIS offers a broad product portfolio of network cameras, video encoders, software and accessories, and provides a unique global service to end customers in connection with installation and use of the products. To this day AXIS maintains a strong focus on research and development that keeps them in a position to remain a leader in IP camera technology well into the future. Founded in Sweden, AXIS was acquired by Canon in 2015 but continues to manufacture as AXIS Communications.
