Past: Building on a strong foundation

For more than 90 years, Barco has been synonymous with visual innovation, helping organizations create lifelike training environments that build confidence and competence. Our journey in simulation began in the early 1990s, leveraging decades of expertise in projection technology to enable realistic, safe, and compliant training experiences.

Over the years, we have built a reputation for delivering solutions that meet stringent industry standards, ensuring compliance, safety, and long-term reliability. This commitment has earned us a substantial global install base and the trust of integrators and end users alike, who rely on Barco to deliver results.

Present: A complete ecosystem for simulation tailored to your needs

Simulation is not one-size-fits-all. Your training objectives are unique, and Barco’s ecosystem is built to help you meet them. Our portfolio spans rugged projectors, complete LED solutions, and global service offerings that simplify integration and maximize uptime. With TAA-compliant options available, every solution is designed to meet evolving industry standards, deliver uncompromising realism, and support secure, compliant environments: a vision to trust.

This ecosystem empowers integrators to streamline deployments and end users to achieve immersive, accurate, and consistent simulation and training experiences. And for procurement teams, it means solutions that meet the latest industry standards while delivering long-term value.

• Projection: The F400 projector set new benchmarks with native 4K resolution on a single-chip DLP architecture and 240Hz refresh rates for artifact-free motion and lifelike visuals. These advancements are powered by Pulse, Barco’s common software platform, ensuring consistency across projector families and simplifying lifecycle management.
• LED Displays: Complete LED solutions with full control of the processing chain ensure the lowest latency and best image quality in the industry. Configurable with pixel pitches starting at 0.9mm, a system radius of 1.75m, and a field-of-view up to 360°, these solutions enable high immersion for the most demanding research and testing environments.
• Services: Barco’s current offering is not restricted to standard configurations: when projects require out-of-the-box creativity, visionary innovation and specialized support, our dedicated team of visualization experts is available to think with you about custom solutions.
