Barco’s new OV-D2 video wall series
come with Sense
6
, a unique sensor tech-
nology that provides brightness and color stabil-
ity over time and across the entire display. The
unique Sense
6
technology continuously measures bright-
ness and color characteristics and adjusts the color space to pro-
vide an image that is most convenient for the human eye. No
distracting luminance or color differences. No frequent mainte-
nance or manual adjustments. No impact on the wall content
whatsoever. Sense
6
gives operators a sense of perfection with an
image accuracy and uniformity that is second to none.
A sense of perfection
• Excellent uniformity
Equal brightness, color, contrast and
midtones for all cubes.
• Sensor based
Barco’s Sense
6
technology sees what
you see by measuring the output of
the video wall rather than a specific
optical component of the projector
system. Changing a lamp or color
wheel is automatically sensed and
compensated for.
• An active system
The system actively measures and
compensates over time and compen-
sates for any changes, especially
changes introduced by lamp aging or
lamp changing.
• No operator intervention needed
The system works in the background
and requires no operator inter vention
or technical skills.
• 100% availability of video wall
content
The system never interferes with the
content on-screen. There is no need
for special patterns keeping the
requested content on the video wall
at all times. Introduction of new
lamps also does not require any
recalibration pattern: the change is
simply measured.
Sense
6
benefits:
Continuous color uniformity across
the entire video wall
A true color sensor continuously
measures the color performance of
each projection cube. The Primary
Color Adjust algorithm matches all
projection cubes to the same color,
based upon the sensor information.
This patented color feedback system
operates in the background and
adjusts the final color on-screen,
compensating for tolerance difference
of the optical path and color wheel as
well as for color changes due to lamp
aging or insertion of new lamps.
Perfect grayscales
Whereas the color locking functionality
preserves color and the brightness
locking functionality preserves white
and black, the Sense
6
gray locking
functionality assures a consistent
linearity between white and black,
regardless of lamp brightness, or lamp
age.
Brightness and color uniformity
across the cube
Thanks to Barco’s renowned optical
design, the brightness and color
uniformity levels of the single OV-D2
projection cubes are extremely high
from center to edge, as well as in the
corners.
Continuous brightness uniformity
across the entire video wall
With Sense
6
technology, operators are
assured of luminance uniformity over
time and across the entire video wall.
A brightness sensor continuously
measures the luminance characteristics
of the projection module. This
brightness information is used by the
optical dimmer functionality to adapt
and match the luminance of all cubes.
The optical dimmer allows contrast
with High Dynamic Range, which
means video wall contrast is twice that
of conventional systems. This makes it
possible to see elements with a low
brightness level, e.g. shades or dark
scenes in movies.
