Starlight Cinemas selected the Barco
DP4K-45L ultra-bright, Flagship Laser projector
to illuminate its 68-foot screen in an extra-large auditorium suited to
deliver premium movie experiences. The projector was selected for its
ability to deliver a radically improved 3D movie experience, which
relies on extreme brightness levels to ensure superior image quality
visible for every moviegoer.
“Barco’s integrated Flagship Laser projectors offer the brightness
needed to show movies in their best light,” comments Bevan Wright,
executive vice president of operations at Moving iMage Technologies.
“It’s the only way to achieve the brightness levels needed for
high-quality 3D movie presentation.”
Barco leading the way in cinema laser projection
Barco’s market leadership in laser projection has been achieved by their
innovation teams, which have established a proven track record of
customer innovation within the entertainment industry for many years.
“The driving force behind Barco’s investment in laser, in recent many
years and for many more to come, is based on our strong belief in the
necessity to drive continued renewal of the moviegoer experience within
this industry,” comments Wim Buyens, Senior Vice President Entertainment
for Barco.
Barco already has more than 60 theaters committed to be equipped with
its Flagship Laser DP4K-L products by the end of 2015, with many more
in the pipeline. Barco’s success in cinema laser projection is based on
its very strong value proposition towards the exhibition community:
delivering a major step up in the audience experience based on unmatched
picture quality optimizing brightness, contrast and color at very
competitive prices.
“Our Barco laser projectors are setting the standard by offering a
unique combination of superior image quality, unmatched 3D brightness
and low TCO while enabling simplified operations and no lamp
replacements,” comments Stijn Henderickx, VP Cinema for Barco. “This
makes them an attractive investment for forward-thinking exhibitors like
Starlight Cinemas, who are committed to premium movie presentation.”
