Barco FS70-4K4 4K laser-phosphor projector with IR for NVG stimulation - R9008792

Product Overview

The Barco FS70-4K4 is a 4K laser-phosphor simulation projector engineered for night-vision-goggle (NVG) training and visual simulation systems. Part R9008792 adds a built-in IR LED light source, optimized at 740 nm, that stimulates night-vision goggles so trainees can rehearse nighttime scenarios. Native WQXGA 2560 x 1600 resolution scales up to 4K (3,840 x 2,400) through Barco Pulse image processing, while a laser-phosphor light source rated up to 60,000 hours supports continuous 24/7 operation. It is purpose-built for the simulation market's demands on motion platforms.

Product Description

The FS70-4K4 belongs to Barco's flagship F70 laser-phosphor series but is tailored specifically for simulation and training rather than general entertainment. Independent control of visual and IR light intensity lets operators tune the projector exactly to a trainee's scenery, and a dual iris improves contrast and black levels for realistic scene reproduction. As shown in the product image, the projector is built robust enough to withstand the rapid, sudden movements of a motion platform during flight and vehicle simulation.

The unit's improved Motion Smear Reduction Processing (SRP) is tuned to remove the artifacts that appear when fast-moving content such as an aircraft rolling, pitching, or banking is displayed, while an improved color-to-white ratio increases color brightness and deepens black levels. Customers building visual systems often pair it with the non-IR Barco F70-4K4 for daytime channels, or step up to the brighter Barco F70-4K6.
