Barco Reality 908, Reality 909, R9040080, R9040040 Brochure & Specs

for immersive displays in simulation and V&AR applications

Split-Pack projector series

Optimal Flexibility and Accessibility

The head of the projector can be placed 6.5 feet from the electronics chassis
Installations on motion-base platforms can have a lower center of gravity and the
systems can be assembled in a vertical array.

Rugged Design

• Shock-resistant and vibration-proof mounting systems for motion platforms are

available on request.

• The design relieves stress from cables to chassis.

• Certified connectors ensure optimal contact.

• Certification: CE, UL1950 (USA), EN60950.

High Quality Multiple Screen Images

• Through Barco's Contrast Modulation, Soft Edge Matching and Convergence on Green,

overlapping zones are seamlessly blended in multiple screen applications.

• TSN

TM

6-pole focus astigmatism correction for superb focus quality across the entire

projected image.

• Digital AutoAlignTMautomatically aligns all geometry and convergence parameters.

• Built-in Scheimpflug optical correction, with stepless adjustment, for optimal optical

focus for off-axis projection (optimal focus under non-standard angles).

Leading-edge technology in a rugged

design for optimal flexibility in

demanding limited-space applications.

This product range combines outstanding

light output with exceptional contrast

and rich true color images for high

performance visualization e.g. in ship

bridge, flight and driving simulators.

High precision digital projection system

Proprietary Digital Waveform
Generation geometry &
convergence correction

This unique feature offers digital control
over all geometry, convergence, focus
and astigmatism adjustments.
The (patented) morph-interpolation
algorithm enhances the digital waveform
by suppressing all artifacts and
generating smooth transitions.
Convergence is adjustable in up to 81
independent zones as well as 25.

TSNTMDigital 6 poles beam correction

Triangular Spot Nullifying™
(TSN)

Digitally controlled 6-poles offer
advanced digital beam correction.
Barco’s TSN beam spot uniformity
enhancement guarantees superb focus
quality across the entire projected
image.

Digital Dynamic Astigmatism
(DDA)

Digital enhancement of the overall
focus quality of the projected image.

Soft Edge Matching

This technique produces seamless
screen transitions so the user can focus
on objects and perceive them as true­to-life as possible.

Contrast Modulation

The output signal is corrected for max­imum uniformity from center to edge
for each screen. A superior color unifor­mity is achieved through modulation of
the video signals with appropriate
waveforms.

Advanced ABL control

The Barco SPLIT-PACK projectors makes
use of an advanced ABL (Automatic
Black Level) circuit to automatically
ensure optimum contrast.

Flexible installation
possibilities

Barco offers a series of special options
for other applications (multi-screen
applications, non-standard projection
angles,...).

• Mosaic geometry correction: Flat,

Curved, Off-axis

• Field extensions

• Optional convergence on green for

enhanced geometric continuity and
contiguous screen overlaps.

• SEMU II Soft Edge Modulation Unit

• Digital Contrast Modulation

...
And many other application specific
optimizations.
Please contact us for more details.

Self-diagnostics

Auto-detection and history log of all
essential functions. These functions are
accessible through the on-screen menu
or over a network.

Optional Auto-Image
Digital Auto-convergence
and Auto-Geometry

Advanced Digital Alignment System
effortlessly aligns the geometry and
convergence of the projected image
with exceptional accuracy, which
makes CRT technology transparent for
the every-day user.
