Visualisation specialist 20 Barco has announced its new LED-lit rear-projection video walls and says that the OL series presents significant quality improvements over the current state of the art in LED projection.

These new rear projectors come with Sense6, which the company claims is a unique sensor technology that

co-ordinates across multiple rear-projection modules to provide brightness and colour stability over time and across the entire video wall screen. Barco's LED-lit video walls have an advanced heat management system based on state-of-the-art liquid cooling to efficiently counteract the effects of high temperatures on the LED light sources. The company claims its system can provide an additional 10°C of temperature decrease on the LED light source, effectively doubling its life and also reducing noise substantially.
