Canopus Corporation is a manufacturer of video editing cards and video editing software. Their competitors include Matrox and Pinnacle Systems.
When 3dfx's Voodoo series of PC-gaming-oriented 3D graphics cards became popular in the mid-1990s, Canopus was well-known for producing the Pure3D, a Voodoo-based graphics card with 6MB of memory instead of the standard 4MB.
