Aspen specializes in producing aftermarket EFIS display systems that retrofit into certified general aviation aircraft. The Evolution Flight Display system family is the company's main product line.[1]

Aspen was founded by former Eclipse Aviation employees Peter Lyons and Jeff Bethel in 2004.[2] In 2007, Aspen expanded into a 27,000 sq ft (2,500 m2) manufacturing plant in New Mexico.[3]

Aspen entered into a co-operative agreement with avionics manufacturer Avidyne to produce compatible products. In 2012, the companies released the DFC90 Autopilot, which integrates with Aspen displays and shares AHRS signals.[4]

In 2021, the company was acquired by AIRO Group.[5]
