Digital and automated lighting pioneer Barco has announced that Richard Belliveau has received the Parnelli Visionary Innovator Award, acknowledging his remarkable career in the live entertainment industry.
The prestigious award, designed for the lighting industry’s highest achievers, was presented to Belliveau at the gala 2009 Parnelli Awards ceremony on November 20 in Orlando, Florida.
As a prolific inventor and designer, Belliveau holds over 65 patents, and to date, continues to create dazzling products for High End Systems, a member of the Barco group. From fog machines to lasers to digital luminaires, Belliveau’s lengthy list of innovations includes the Laser Chorus, Dataflash, Intellabeam, Emulator, Cyberlight, Studio Color, Trackspot, Technobeam, X-Spot, SHOWGUN, SHOWPIX, SHOWBEAM and High End’s renowned DL.1, DL.2 and DL.3.
Over the course of his career, and certainly in his role as co-founder of High End Systems, Belliveau’s constant philosophy has been to design products that generate excitement and motivate people. “If you build that,” said Belliveau, “then the lighting designers will come.”
“Not only is it an honor for Richard Belliveau to have won the Parnelli Visionary Innovator Award, but it’s an honour and privilege to have talent such as his within the Barco organisation,” said Eric van Zele, CEO of Barco. “Richard’s contributions to the creative lighting industry are almost beyond measure. In concerts and clubs worldwide, his inventions are used daily to create designs for the world’s top lighting professionals.”
