Even before Runco International was formed in 1986 by Sam & Lori Runco the company introduced a wide variety of video products back in the early 1970's that would ultimately become the foundation for large screen video displays as we know them today. Thus, from the beginning Runco International established itself as the leading name in the "Home Theater" industry, being credited with the original vision to see an industry evolving where none had previously existed. In fact, Runco's leadership in the industry was so dominate that in 1990 they received the trademark™ for "Home Theater" in the state of California! Industry firsts like the high-resolution projector/processor combination, the world's first aspect ratio controller, (one of the most significant milestones in the history of Home Theater), the very first Laser Disc player to have Dolby™AC-3 capability and THX™ certification, the first video projection company in the Home Theater market to offer products based on Texas Instrument's revolutionary Digital Light Processing (DLP™) technology, the first 'double-stacked' projectors, the Home Theater industry's brightest projector and even the establishment of the first in-industry Cinema Standards Measurement System™ (CSMS™) creating a new industry benchmark for the way video product specifications are characterized. Runco's technological leadership is further found in the innovative CineWide™ and CineWide™ with AutoScope™ systems developed especially for select Runco projectors. Through a combination of software, electronics and remote controlled motorized anamorphic optics, the projector is able to use the full pixel array on its Digital Micro-mirror Device™ (DMD™) chips, thereby producing a true wide-screen image with enhanced resolution and increased brightness. No resolution is lost to annoying black bars on the top and bottom of the screen! On May 23, 2007 Planar Systems, Inc. announced the acquisition of Runco International. Planar Systems, Inc. is a global leader of video display technologies and its business units specialize in providing hardware and software solutions for a wide range of residential and commercial environments, thus, as one might expect Runco was assimilated into Planar's portfolio of specialty video display brands as the leading luxury brand in its Home Theater Business Unit. Runco's new family of products incorporates the most advanced video technologies, dedicated craftsmanship, and continues to be custom-built to offer the world's finest imaging solutions for the discerning video enthusiast who refuses to compromise making Runco the definitive choice for those who demand The World's Finest Home Theater Products™!
