Barco may not be a well-known name in audio and video technology to the average consumer. Still, most anyone that has experience with commercial-class AV or attended a large event has experienced a Barco projector. 

The company has a long, rich, and perhaps surprising history. It started in Belgium as a radio manufacturer, with American parts – the Belgian American Radio Corporation. The company followed the natural progression into TV set manufacturing in the late 1950s to the 1970s, competing in Europe with industry giants like Philips. In 1979, they started to focus on video projection in airplanes, producing color projectors when the competition was still in black and white. The innovation continued from there, as Barco developed commercial projection and display solutions used from medical radiology to air traffic control. Leveraging their extensive experience and history, they entered the commercial cinema projection market in the early 2000s, with thousands of installations around the globe. 

If you want a top-quality projector for your home theater, Barco should be at the top of your shopping list. As a top commercial AV and home theater design company in St. Louis, Elite Technology Solutions recommends Barco projector solutions for its Missouri clients. Keep reading below to learn why.
