Epiphan Systems, also known by its trade name as Epiphan Video, is an AV equipment manufacturer founded in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada with an office in Palo Alto, California .

Epiphan Systems Inc. markets, develops, manufactures, and supports a line of video capture, streaming, and recording products. Among their products are a family of high-resolution VGA, DVI, and HDMI frame grabbers (some with custom drivers, some UVC-based) and a series of professional AV streaming/recording systems with included video switching technology. Epiphan Systems made the world's first high-resolution frame grabbers capable of transferring images over the USB bus with capture rates over 60 frames per second using precompressor technologies for image capture.[1] YouTube lists Epiphan's Webcaster X2 amongst its YouTube Live verified encoders.[2]

Clients and integrators of Epiphan Systems' technologies include the US Armed Forces, Microsoft, IBM, as well as a slate of other high-profile organizations. Its products are also used to relay images from medical equipment over the Internet.[3][4] Epiphan's video broadcasting devices have also been used by NASA on the International Space Station for ultrasound remote diagnostics purposes.[5] The frame grabbers have been mentioned in scholarly articles for their usage in academic medical settings.[6][7][8][9][10]
