About

Melville, NY-based Chyron is a leading provider of broadcast graphics hardware, software and associated services to the television industry.

The company develops, manufactures, markets and supports hardware and software solutions that enhance the production values of live and pre-recorded television programs. Typically, Chyron products are used to create 2D and 3D titles and moving graphic images for live sports, news, and entertainment shows. Chyron’s graphics products are used by thousands of broadcasters in the US and around the world including ABC, FOX, CBS, ESPN, Turner Entertainment Networks, The Golf Channel, Home Shopping Network, Korean Broadcasting, Germany’s BR and NDR networks, and the BBC, plus local stations in every television market. It is estimated that almost 60% of U.S. broadcasters use Chyron products to display news titles, sports scores, weather information, election results and news and finance tickers.

In January 2008, Chyron acquired AXIS Graphics, a unique, proprietary web-based graphics system that has pioneered online graphics production. AXIS is the world’s first online content creation system for broadcasters and new media providers. Combining your existing on-air and online graphics packages with up-to-the-minute and relevant content, AXIS enables anyone with an Internet connection the ability to build broadcast quality news graphics, charts, quotes, maps and weather instantly; and the system is hardware independent!

Chyron’s ChyTV business unit has recently launched a full range of products that address the emerging opportunities in the high growth video and digital signage markets. ChyTV’s powerful, low cost video informational display systems facilitate the easy creation and display of a variety of graphic and text information overlayed or surrounding a ‘live’ video region on a single display or networked, multiple displays.

Truly, Chyron is, as its slogan says “ The Company The Whole World Watches”.
