Barco’s rugged flat panel displays (from 7” to 28”) feature a variety of electronic, optical, environmental and video processing options and have been tested to meet MIL-standard environmental specifications. The flat panels feature Barco’s proprietary LCD Flicker Compensation solution that corrects the annoying LCD flicker, when updating images with high contrast and high density. Furthermore, the displays are available with a unique Automatic Phase Adjust functionality, eliminating all image artifacts, such as pixel noise. Thanks to their rugged design and front bonded optical stack, Barco’s flat panel displays succeed in combining excellent optical performance with high-standing environmental qualifications.

Barco further offers a full range of video mixing and graphics processing products (both PCI and VME) that allow displaying real-time graphics, radar and video data in a Windows environment. The product family provides exceptional flexibility and capability in digitally mixing high-resolution graphics, video and radar into a single RGB output, without degrading graphics performance.

Dedicated solutions for vetronics applications include the BARCO VECTOR® family of rugged LCDs and the ALTIUM series of multi-functional rugged computers. The BARCO VECTOR® family of rugged LCD panels, control modules and HMI development tools, combines video camera input with standard text On-Screen Display, as well as graphics overlay created by a powerful Symbol Generator. The ALTIUM series of multi-functional rugged computers bundles modularity, connectivity and performance into a MIL-tailored computing solution for battlefield digitization.

The company’s total solutions for command and control also include rugged workstations and consoles. The modular approach of these consoles allows for easy customization and configuration to user preferences. They significantly reduce design time, resulting in a lower cost for both the system integrator and end-user. They are available both in VME and PCI configurations.

The product range includes individual software modules, groups of components or complete systems comprising software, hardware and implementation.
