Barco's Farnborough International Air Show setup of its cockpit of the future concept, was one of the exhibition's highlights. This demo video explains how this concept works.

 

The design of the new cockpit display focused on two main pillars: revolutionize the input interface as well as the display concept. The idea that Barco’s avionics R&D team and research partner Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) came up with, was to develop one large unified iPad-style screen with a unified multi-touch display, which allows a more intuitive operation.

The concept comprises four bright Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) in a flush design. In this video, you get a full tour of the many advantages this display concept has to offer.
