ARCO GALAXY

Active Stereo DLP™ Projector, Multi-channel Optimized

Next to a wide range of high-

performance stereoscopic CRT and

LCD projectors, Barco presents a

top of the range stereoscopic

DLP™ projector, the B

Its capability to display SXGA active

stereo signals with refresh rates up

to 110 Hz, and the integration of

many proprietary technologies

such as O

(OSEM) and DLP™-optimized

Passive Stereo polarizers, make the

BARCO GALAXY the leading product in

its range for multi-channel displays.

PTICAL SOFT EDGE MATCHING

ARCO GALAXY

Unequalled Versatility

• Active stereo capabilities at SXGA up to 110 Hz, thanks to high-

perfomance Pixel Map Processor and dedicated DLP™ chipsets

• Barco’s S

Generator, the B

• Impressive 205 MHz A/D conversion bandwidth ensures

compatibility with high resolution and high refresh-rate sources

• Version with integrated proprietary WARP™ also available,

.

offering built-in Non-Linear Image Mapping, frame rate and
resolution conversion at active stereo rates

• Optional Passive stereo optimization with DMD™ optimized

polarizers enables large-venue 3D projection

Multi-channel Optimization

• Proprietary O

optical filters to achieve truly seamless blending for multichannel
systems, maintaining full contrast ratio

• Proprietary E

and reconfigurable blending with easy set-up

• Integrated C

other B

• Optimized engine ensures matched primary colors and maximizes

addressable multi-channel color gamut

Superior Optics

• High contrast ratio: engine developed to achieve a contrast ratio
of 800:1 which results in extremely vivid and dynamic images

• Dedicated lens range: optimized for unequalled resolution and
accurate geometry; wide throw ratio range, motorized shift range
and built-in Scheimpflug correction result in high flexibility of
installations

YNCLOCK ensures synchronization between the Image

ARCO GALAXY projector and the stereo shutter glasses

PTICAL SOFT EDGE MATCHING (OSEM): custom-made

LECTRONIC SOFT EDGE MATCHING (ESEM): highly-flexible

ONSTANT LIGHT OUTPUT (CLO), which can be linked with

ARCO GALAXY projectors for cross-channel brightness tracking
