Front bonding

Barco has developed unique bonding
capabilities to protect the LCD against
extreme environmental conditions
(temperature, shock, vibration,
humidity, EMI,...) and to significantly
improve optical performance and 
protection against condensation. 

Automatic Phase
Adjust (APA)

The APA function automatically locks
the LCD sampling clock to the 
(drifting) graphics generator pixel 
frequency, thus avoiding image 
artifacts like pixel noise. Drift can be
caused by temperature changes, 
electromagnetic interference and
other environmental factors.

LCD Flicker Compensation (patented)

When updating images with high contrast and high density (such as sonar or
dense tactical data) the LCD’s brightness varies with the rate of updating. This
luminance variation, referred to as ‘LCD Flicker’, can cause serious eye-fatigue and
affect the interpretation of the displayed data. Barco has integrated a unique set
of algorithms that reside in the hardware interface of the display (between the
graphics generator and the LCD). This feature compensates for LCD Flicker, without
affecting the displayed data, over all operating parameters.

Extended dimming

range

For many products, Barco uses 
in-house manufactured circuitry to
provide advanced dimming solutions.
This provides the advantages of a
darker background resulting in higher
contrast for lower ambient light 
conditions and/or high-bright 
solutions for higher ambient light 
conditions.
