By basing Balder’s optical engine on its bigger brother Loki’s architecture, which features custom designed aspherical glass elements and enhanced low dispersion glass lenses, image quality is in a class of its own.
Topping that, Balder’s chassis and core are built from aluminium and magnesium, which offer exceptional robustness, resulting in the best picture quality ever shown at this level.
Barco's “Pulse” electronics are built on a superior FPGA platform, featuring a dual-core processor on the industry’s only 20 nm SoChave, with 96 transceiver lanes delivering 3.3 Tbps of serial bandwidth.
Thanks to its unique single-step processing technology (SSPTM), Pulse electronics are designed to process 4K UHD, HDMI 2.0a, HDCP 2.2 and HDR10 signals with extremely low latency. This provides exceptional gaming and movie viewing experiences.
Laser Light Source
Outstanding image quality requires an exceptional light source, which is why Balder uses a laser engine which delivers up to 7,000 ANSI lumens output.
Alongside significantly improved image uniformity, lasers last longer than traditional projector lamps, offer great image quality consistence over their lifetime, are less fragile and offer near instant on/off performance.
