As a leading supplier of comprehensive, low-risk display systems,
Barco provides a full portfolio of easy-to-deploy simulation solutions offering full realism. On booth #2435, visitors can experience Barco's new transportable dome systems for ground, flight and night vision goggles (NVG) training scenarios. Offering the perfect blend of high performance, mobility and economy, the TD-series is available in three configurations and features Barco’s specialised simulation projectors. Also exhibited is the EN-57, Barco’s new ultra short throw, lens on the F50 series. With its throw ratio of 0.3:1 and off axis projection, it significantly reduces the space requirements for any application.

On 29 September 2014, Barco announced its agreement to divest its Defence, Aerospace & Training (DAT) division to the aerospace and defense group
Esterline. The transition is expected to close within 2015. "
While, upon completion of the transaction, this will be a big change, we firmly believe that it is in the best interest of everyone involved," said
Dave Scott, General Manager of the DAT division. "
The same product offering as today will remain on offer tomorrow, and once under Esterline we will be allowed to invest continuously in upgrading and widening our product portfolio in all our markets."
The decision is part of Barco’s long-term strategy to strengthen its core activities and streamline its business portfolio. Furthermore, under the care of its new parent company, the DAT division will enjoy a broader presence on its worldwide markets as well as greater opportunities to serve and expand its customer base. According to the company, the DAT division remains committed as ever, and maybe even more under a more dedicated parent, to the markets of Air Traffic Control, Training and Simulation, next to Defense and Avionics.
