Barco G100-W16 17,200 lumen, WUXGA, single-chip laser phosphor projector
Barco, a leader in professional visualization technologies, announces the launch of its new G100 series projectors. “The company expands its laser projection portfolio with a budget-friendly projector range that meets the high Barco quality standards and the customer requirements in terms of brightness, technical versatility and sustainability. The introduction of the three G100 models further strengthens and diversifies Barco’s projector hardware offering for media-based attractions, like planetariums, theme parks, and smaller events,” explains the company’s announcement.
The G100 is a single-chip projector with native WUXGA resolution and comes in three brightness variants: 16.000, 19.000 and 22.000 lumens. This power is designed for advanced image quality in projections both indoor and outdoor.
“The G100 is developed for those applications that require high brightness and powerful laser projection at an affordable price,” says Richard Marples, Sales Enablement Director Immersive Experiences at Barco. “With its outstanding price-performance ratio, these new models are a great addition to Barco’s projection offering and the perfect fit for any creative project.”
The G100 supports all the latest input sources, including HDMI 2.0, for deep color palettes. The new projector series has a future-proof design and exceptionally low noise levels for indoor installations.
Barco also brings a new GC-lens range to the market for the G100 models, with throw ratios going from 0.38 up to 10.8, and a large shift capability. With onboard cooling the G100’s are designed to withstand a maximum ambient operating temperature of 50°C (122°F).
To conclude, the G100 projectors feature components that lower the power consumption of the device and extend the light source lifetime to limit the ecological footprint of the units. As a result, the ecoscoring team has granted the projectors an A-score and a Barco ECO product label.
The introduction of the three G100 models further diversifies Barco’s projector hardware offering for immersive media-based attractions, like planetariums, museums, theme parks, and smaller events. The broad Barco single-chip portfolio is featured at Memory Lane Museum in Russia where 180 Barco projectors of different sizes, resolutions and brightness levels are installed to create an interactive and immersive experience telling the story of the Great Patriotic War.
