Vindral named 2026 Technology & Engineering Emmy award recipient

Vindral has been named a recipient of a 2026 Technology & Engineering Emmy® Award by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS), the company said. The Swedish real-time audio and video technology firm is recognised in the category Web-Based Frame-Accurate Remote Monitoring Systems for Distributed Broadcast Production.

The co-recipients in the category are SipRadius, NBCUniversal, Grass Valley, CBS Sports, Disney, Game Creek and Amazon, according to the announcement. The awards are set to be presented on October 14 at the Television Academy's Saban Media Center in North Hollywood, California; Vindral said it will be represented by CEO Daniel Alinder and Ian Jefferson.

"This is confirmation that the technology we build in northern Sweden belongs on the world stage. Being recognised alongside some of the world's largest media companies says something about what a focused team can achieve by solving the right problem the right way," Alinder said.

NATAS’s Technology & Engineering Emmy® Awards recognise technical achievement in television production. Vindral said the recognised work centres on frame-accurate synchronisation for distributed productions, enabling multiple participants to see the same video frame at the same moment through a web browser.

Vindral said its platform is used by broadcasters, sports platforms, auction houses and live casino providers, and that it runs the emerging Media over QUIC (MoQ) standard in production with real audiences. "The award honours solutions that let production teams work frame-accurately from different locations, in the browser, without specialised hardware. That is exactly the kind of problem we love, where latency decides whether a production works at all," said Per Mafrost, CTO of Vindral.
