Barco Releases 3-Chip DLP Projector

Printer-friendly version

Barco has released the Galaxy NW-7 projector, which is a three-chip DLP, 7000 lumens projector with WUXGA (1920x1200) resolution designed for high-resolution, multi-channel setups. Its active 3D stereo capabilities are aimed at applications in scientific research and virtual design, while its smearing reduction makes it an attractive choice for simulated fast-jet training. Both applications typically use multi-projector systems.
 
Barco's Galaxy NW-7 is an extension of the company's existing portfolio of Galaxy projectors that also includes a high-brightness version, the Galaxy NW-12. Like the Galaxy NW-12, the Galaxy NW-7 is a three-chip DLP projector with a WUXGA (1920x1200) resolution. However, its 7,000 lumens light output makes it more suitable for mid-level setups.
 
Its Xenon lamp technology offers a saturated and stable color spectrum over time. Combined with its brightness equalisation, warping capabilities and rigid design the Galaxy NW-7 becomes ideally suitable for high demanding systems environments. Its stability is further highlighted by its improved liquid cooling and filterless design, which helps extend the projector's lifetime significantly. In addition, the projector supports both electronic and optical blending to ensure a composite image free of disturbances and blurry overlap zones.
 
As an active 3D stereo projector, Barco's Galaxy NW-7 is aimed at markets that require exact 3D data display, such as the oil and gas industry's exploration and production segments, or virtual prototyping in the automotive sector. In rooms that need just a single projector, the Galaxy NW-7's compatibility with Barco's XDS Control Center turns the display into a collaborative canvas. On a familiar Windows desktop, users can control various sources, exchange data and participate in video conferencing with just mouse and keyboard.
