BARCO presents the BARCO GRAPHICS 8100, a high resolution LCD graphics projection system. A 650 W metal-halide lamp and 3 active matrix LCD panels with XGA resolution (1,024 x 768 pixels) result in crystal clear and razor sharp images with a light output of 1,500 ANSI lumen on screens up to 15 m (50 ft.) wide. No other large screen projection system in this price range provides users with such an exceptional performance value.
The digital video decoder allows the BARCO Graphics 8100 to display all popular video sources (PAL, SECAM, NTSC) in composite, S-VHS, RGB or component forms and all currently proposed HDTV, extended and improved TV standards. Thanks to the Pixel Map Processor, this unit is compatible with all computer graphics formats and electronic workstations with a resolution up to 1,280 x 1,024.
Utilizing advanced light-valve technology, the BARCO GRAPHICS 8100 aligns the red, green and blue images internally before the projection lens, eliminating the need for readjustment of the convergence for different sizes and projection distances. Logical onscreen menus facilitate easy set-up and control through a backlit infrared remote control. On-line help information is available for each specific menu item.
Further, BARCO offers a complete range of high definition lenses with different throwing ratios to meet various application requirements. This range of lenses includes fixed focal length lenses with a throwing ratio of 1.2, 2.2, 3.3, 3.5 (16:9 aspect ratio), 4.0, 5.0 or 7.0 times the screen width and variable focus lenses with throwing ratios between 1.5-3 and between 3-5.3 times the screen width.
Extremely high resolution and light output, easy set-up and wide compatibility make the BARCO GRAPHICS-8100 ideal for high demanding large screen applications, such as for entertainment and infotainment, training and simulation, process control, industrial design, traffic management, trade shows, CAD/CAM/CAE imaging and virtual reality.
