Not unlike the rapid development of the film industry, moviegoers' requirements, as to their moviegoing experience, have been increasing. The service quality of post-production companies has a direct impact on the movie-going experience. In order to meet the special needs of the post-production market, Barco developed the world's first DLP digital cinema projector combining post-production, archiving, recovery and 4K resolution together with a number of innovative technologies.
Koen Van Belle, Product Manager at Barco, states: "This product integrated some advanced and innovative technologies as well as powerful hard- and software, including the four-link 3G input board, a high-contrast lens, wide-color gamut filters, high-uniformity DMD chips, post-production software, as well as a sealed optical engine and active DMD cooling technologies with Barco's patented intellectual property rights.”
DP4K-P digital projector has a number of powerful, high-quality features. Its 4K resolution renders an impeccable display. The built-in new software permits easy control, and powerful analytical tools help post-production professionals understand different inputs easily and conduct the bit-depth analysis. These new features bring more convenience to the post-production process.
