Balder
A divine force, bringing beauty and life to the most refined home cinema and media rooms.
- Theater & Media Room Series
- 4K UHD Resolution (3,840 x 2,160)
- Laser Phosphor
- Up to 7,000 ANSI Lumens
Professional grade optics
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.
State of the art electronics
Our “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 our unique single step processing technology (SSPTM), Pulse electronics are designed to process 4K UHD, HDMITM 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 our brand-new 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.
Liquid cooling
Balder has departed from a pure fan based cooling system, opting instead for a liquid cooling PID regulation system. This combined with our simulation grade warp engine allows Balder to operate at any angle (free rotation), offering new possibilities when it comes to architectural integration.
