ScioTeq Advanced Visualization for Avionics, Defense & Security and Air Traffic Control. Overview ScioTeq has a deep history in visualization technology, with roots going back almost 60 years. We got our start in 1967 as Esterline Technologies Corporation, a spin-off from the television and display business from Barco in the mid 1980s, when we provided the first ruggedized CRT monitor based on COTS technology for the naval market. During the same period, we started to sell our solutions to the airborne market. In the 1990s, with the evolution of LCD technology, we were one of the first companies to bring COTS-based LCD displays to the most demanding environments, using our patented LCD-based technologies. With the acquisition of Chromatics in the U.S., we acquired unique graphics generation technology that we embedded in all our display products, bringing smart symbol generation capabilities to our display solution offerings. In early 2000, we introduced the first LCD-based air traffic control main monitor, replacing obsolete CRTs with 28-inch LCD displays at 2K x 2K resolution. This display received much acclaim by the industry; so much so that in 2001, it received the New Technology award from Jane’s Information Group. With more than 250,000 display solutions fielded in the last 30 years, ScioTeq Advanced Visualization products are on board more than 150 aircraft types, over 100 ship types, and more than 50 vehicle types. Every day, more than 80,000 flights are controlled from a ScioTeq Air Traffic Control display. In 2015, Esterline acquired the former Barco Defense, Avionics and Training business that became, with other Esterline display capabilities, the Esterline Advanced Displays business unit, now called ScioTeq.
