VDC Display Systems – VDCDS History
VDC Display Systems – VDCDS is one of the world's leading providers of innovative display systems, and has provided more than 5,000 simulation and training display systems as a contractor on multiple Federal contracts to support the United States Air Force, Marines, National Guard, Navy and commercial businesses. We utilize the latest technology to develop visual systems that transform complex display requirements into reality. Our 
creative ideas provide comprehensive, customized solutions that ensure our customers' success. Our products include state-of-the-art Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) and modified COTS displays and projection equipment. We also provide custom system design consulting and manufacturing, software and hardware integration, and technical services.
We serve a global customer base. Our customers include U.S. Armed Forces, Government Agencies, leading system integrators, energy companies, universities, manufacturing and design firms and many other display system and projection equipment users.
Our focus is based on working closely with our customers. We fully understand that each application has a unique set of needs and requirements. To meet these challenges, VDCDS has moved from working predominantly with Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) solutions to a broad range product line of Commercial Off-the-Street (COTS), ruggedized and motion capable Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCoS) and Digital Light Processing (DLP) projectors. We couple our products with a proven record for designing, manufacturing, installing, integrating and testing multi-channel or ultra-high resolution display systems to satisfy or exceed the requirements of the most demanding applications.
