Display Solutions, Inc. of Hudson, MA, was chosen to perform an upgrade of the NASA Ames Research Neuro-Engineering Lab Visual System.
The Neuro-Engineering Lab is a NASA test and evaluation facility that is used to support the development, evaluation and demonstration of aircraft modeling, adaptive control and flight management technologies. The visual system upgrade needed to be compatible with the existing rear-projection screen site infrastructure and support geometry correction, edge-blending, color correction and rapid re-configurability. The system also had to be compatible with the Open Scene Graph API, running on Linux legacy image generators.
Display Solutions, Inc. of Hudson, MA, has completed an upgrade of The Boeing Company’s Philadelphia Rotorcraft Flight Simulation Laboratory in Ridley Park, PA.The Rotorcraft Flight Simulation Laboratory is a test and evaluation facility that requires multi-channel projected images to be compatible with ANVIS III NVG and rotation rates of 50 degrees per second without smear. Since this is a research simulation facility, the visual system design and components have to be re-configurable in order to display the extreme maneuvers associated with rotorcraft development.
Montreal, Canada, March 2, 2006 -- Matrox Graphics Inc. announces TripleHead2Go(TM), an external upgrade that adds support for using 3 monitors at a time. The easy-to-install unit simply connects to the monitor output of a computer. The operating system treats TripleHead2Go like a monitor supporting resolutions 3 times as wide as standard resolutions and TripleHead2Go uses Matrox patent-pending technology to divide the monitor output from the computer into 3 separate displays. The displays respectively show the left, center, and right portions of this "monitor". This announcement follows the recent introduction of DualHead2Go(TM), the world's first multi-display upgrade of this type.
Suwanee, GA – Firearms Training Systems, Inc. purchases Barco iQ G350 projectors to integrate into the new Virtual Combat Convoy Trainers (VCCTs) being built by Lockheed Martin Simulation, Training, and Support in Orlando, FL.
iG300 Product Spec. can be found here.

While people training to be military pilots and private pilots have been using computer flight simulators for years, Bugeye Technologies is the first to use actual military flight simulation technology in their 3-D coin-operated arcade games. Founded in March of last year by Doug Swain, Mike Stockton and Ed Elking, former Boeing employees, Bugeye Technologies was formed through Boeing's Chairman's Innovation Initiative that allowed Boeing employees to start new businesses using Boeing technologies.
Barco will provide this year’s I/ITSEC attendees a first-hand demonstration of its revolutionary DMO solution for military training at booth 1101. Using two active-for-flight cockpits, pilots will fly missions in a virtual battlefield environment while other networked systems display the out-of-window imagery and virtual battlefield, as well as record the mission for post-mission debriefing.
Major Win for IData HMI Tool Suite Marks Quantum3D Entry into Market for DO-178B Certified Avionics Applications
SAN JOSE, CA - July 20, 2004 - Quantum3D®, Inc., a leading provider of open architecture, realtime 3D visual computing solutions for Visual and Sensor Simulation Training (VSST) and Embedded Visual Computing (EVC) markets, announced today that Honeywell has selected the Quantum3D IData™ Human Machine Interface (HMI) development suite of tools to develop the avionics displays for its APEX® integrated cockpit systems.

Barco announces the acquisition of Folsom Research, Inc., based in Sacramento, California. Folsom, which employs 75 associates, is a profitable company with $16.5 million sales and a book-to-bill ratio larger than 1. Folsom's product lines cover solutions for image processing, image communication and image functionality and interactivity. In these dedicated markets, Folsom has a 30 % share in the USA and 17 % worldwide. As Barco has previously held 4 % market share in these segments, the acquisition is a rapid leap forward for Barco in providing total solutions beyond displays-only functionalities.

Barco’s new SIM6 Ultra II provides longer light output and reduces operation costs
At I/ITSEC 2003 Barco proudly presents a new generation of SIM6 Ultra: the SIM6 Ultra II. It maintains all of the valued features of the SIM6 Ultra, but lamps last longer, operation costs are less, and for some applications it performs better.
Since its launch at I/ITSEC 2001, Barco’s SIM6 Ultra has become a renowned reference in the world of high-end simulation. Advanced WARP 6 geometric distortion, transport delay reduction, optical soft-edge matching, DynaColor color matching: everything customers valued was built in, or is available as an option. Yet, Barco has refocused on a new horizon: the SIM6 Ultra II.
