Creative Technology Increases Projection Inventory with Large Purchase of Barco DLP™ Projectors

Creative Technology North America, a global leader in supplying audio and video solutions to a diverse group of clients, has added (18) Barco SLM G-10 and (4) ELM R-18 Projectors to it’s already impressive inventory of large screen video projectors. The new inventory of projectors has been distributed among all three CT North American offices and is available for rental by CT’s national and international client base.

The BARCO SLM G-10 combines 10,000 Lumens light output and 1024 x 768 resolution with advanced signal processing to deliver a remarkable break-through in performance for large screen video projection. A wide range of special features and accessories make the SLM G10 especially suited for the most demanding Rental and Staging Clients. Special design features enable the projector to be handled, set-up and controlled in an exceptionally easy fashion, reducing installation time. An extremely rugged steel frame construction allows the projector to be stacked quickly and safely, without the need for a stacking frame. It is fully compatible with both current and future digital sources, and utilizes 13-bit digital signal processing for superb gray scale performance.

The BARCO ELM R-18 offers 17,500 lumens with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 for clear, bright images on screens up to 50 feet wide. The system includes 900:1 high contrast ratio and seamless switching with cross fade effects among the many features. The R-18’s input sources are compatible with any analog and digital video input as well as any known HDTV standard.

“This purchase was made to compliment CT’s rental and staging inventory of high end, large screen projectors, particularly for events in which extremely high light output is the requirement,” stated Chief Executive Officer, Graham Andrews. Our decision to purchase the Barco product was largely due to the innovative features that Barco has designed into their projectors. They understand what a staging company requires to meet the demands of its clients. CT has built its reputation on providing its clients with the latest technological solutions to their presentation needs and Barco continues to be a valued partner in that endeavour.”

Curt Petty, Market Business Manager, Barco Events, stated, “Creative Technology has become one of the world’s leading A/V solutions providers and has one of the largest inventories of DLP™ projection systems and LED displays. The purchase of the Barco DLP™ projectors further adds to their impressive inventory and offers their clients superior projection solutions that meet the requirements of the rental and staging market.”
