Integration, ergonomy and
multimodal interaction
Barco’s expertise and competence in
control room environment and
technology includes total design and
engineering of Command & Control
Room projects. Barco's project
approach and clear design
methodology means assisting the
customer from the earliest stages of
concept engineering to the final
delivery of the control center.
Barco’s Command Center design
philosophy is centered around
two basic concepts, i.e. large-area
screen display and individual
watchstation or personal wall.
For example, the Warfare Coordinator's
perspective and needs are different
from the individual operator dealing
with current tactical information.
The large-area display provides high-
level information which is of interest to
all operators and coordinators (it
provides the COP), whereas Barco's
personal wall concept allows the
display of both operator-specific tasks
and specific supervisory overviews for
the coordinator without interfering with
the operators work.
Barco also offers alternative modes of
operation, both for briefing rooms and
command & control centers such as
pen-based interfaces and
whiteboarding (write on imported
geographical maps or tactical charts or
perform mind mapping and
brainstorming). In addition, touch panel
functionality with customized GUIs can
be implemented.
