Barco adds 3D to OL LED series

30 September 2011

Barco has combined 3D stereo knowledge with its range of OL LED video wall modules to create the OLS series.

The company says 3D functionality will find a place in the oil and gas sector for displaying explorations of underground fields.

The OLS series has a standard 16:9 aspect ratio and full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution. The stereoscopic input signal – consisting of left and right 60 Hz source signals – is displayed on the video wall as a 120 Hz image sequence. The active shutter glasses, synchronized by an IR emitter, then filter the left and right signals create stereoscopic effects. The 3D impression works at any head position, the full color spectrum is available, imaging is color-neutral, and there is no ghosting.

The OLS modules have a footprint of less than 450 mm for the 50” version. An optional front-access version, the OLSF, has been designed.
