Since its foundation as a
manufacturer of records and phonographs in 1927, Victor Company of
Japan, Ltd. (JVC) has been a leader of hardware and
software development in the audiovisual field.
Throughout our
seventy-year history, JVC's technology has been instrumental in
shaping the way society gathers and views information.
Breakthroughs such as 45/45 stereo record systems, 4-channel
stereo systems, 2-head VTR's and our invention of the VHS video
format in 1976, have all radically impacted our communications and
entertainment standards, spawning new industry around the world.
JVC's commitment
to "standard unification" of the VHS format has allowed JVC to
deliver customer-oriented products, and has ensured that JVC's VHS
video equipment has gained reliability as a life-long tool. VHS
has grown with the development of W-VHS to comply with
next-generation wide-screen TVs as well as D-VHS for digital
technology.
JVC's corporate
nucleus is consumer electronics, however, the company also
manufactures professional audio/video systems, key component
devices and general software. Leadership in these categories is
made possible by many years of engineering collaboration and
marketing know-how. JVC's corporate growth is supported by the
company's technology-oriented philosophy.
JVC's hallmark annual sponsorship of the "Tokyo
Video Festival" raises the visibility of the company and strengthenes the JVC
brand around the world.
At JVC, we take pride in our history of innovation and in the
technologies that we have contributed to the world.
