The Victorian State Pearcey Award, designed to encourage fresh and innovative talent in the ICT profession, has been presented to digital audio innovator Graeme Huon.
Speaking at the 2005 Pearcey Foundation National Awards event in Melbourne, Victoria's State Government ICT Minister Marsha Thomson said Graeme Huon had followed in the footsteps of the best and brightest young talents in Victoria’s ICT industry.
“Graeme founded Whise, Precision Audio and Techstream – companies that are all internationally recognised for their ground-breaking audio, acoustics technology and product development," said Thomson.
“He has created and co-developed over 22 patent applications.
“More recently, Graeme established HuonLabs to develop and commercialise new technologies in the human perception and cognition areas of acoustics and vision. This developmental technology is dramatically changing the way we capture and hear reproduced sound, which will benefit the hearing impaired."
The Pearcey Foundation was set up in 1988 in memory of a pioneer of the Australian ICT industry, Dr Trevor Pearcey, who built Australia’s first computer in 1948.
Other Victorian finalists included:
Peter Lee for creating Insight – a product which delivers huge cost savings to large users of telecommunication services in Australia; and
Paul Steele for creating the successful educational music software products Auralia and Musition.
