Microdia

Microdia, Inc. was a technology company that specialized in the development and manufacturing of USB peripherals. Founded in 1997, the company was headquartered in San Jose, California. Microdia was known for its innovative products, including USB flash drives, digital cameras, and webcams. The company's products were widely used in both consumer and professional markets, and it was recognized for its high-quality and reliable hardware.

Microdia's USB flash drives were particularly notable for their compact size and high storage capacity, making them popular among users who needed portable storage solutions. The company's digital cameras were also well-regarded for their image quality and ease of use. Additionally, Microdia's webcams were known for their high-definition video and audio quality, making them a popular choice for video conferencing and streaming.

Despite its success, Microdia faced financial difficulties in the late 2000s and early 2010s, leading to a series of acquisitions and restructuring efforts. In 2013, the company was acquired by Lenovo, which continued to produce and sell Microdia's products under the Microdia brand. However, in 2017, Lenovo announced that it would discontinue the Microdia brand and integrate its products into its own product lines. As a result, Microdia as a separate entity no longer exists, and its products are now sold under the Lenovo brand.
