C8
The C8 outdoor LED display is a member of Barco`s renowned C-series family and shares its mechanics such as truss beams, feet and stacking frames with the other C-series LED displays. The electronic backbone of the C8 is identical to that of the renowned C5 display, powered by the DX image processor and controlled by the Director Toolset software.
Perfectly suited for cross-rental applications
As the C8 is based on high-quality LEDs with narrow binning, and the calibration is done on the Barco proprietary calibration carrousels, it is perfectly suited for cross-rental applications. This not only guarantees consistent brightness, it also offers rental companies the flexibility to combine LED tiles from different batches. Thanks to its slim design, the C8 can also easily be integrated in the most challenging setups. What`s more, the display comes with clickable shaders that can simply be replaced in case of damage.
Ultimate image quality
The versatile C8 offers high-quality scaling, an unlimited pixel count (through stacking of multiple processors), auto redundancy and 16-bit processing per color. Another significant feature is its hermetically sealed and fanless design which guarantees crisp images at all times.
Simple control
The C8 LED display can easily be controlled by the remote management software. What`s more, thanks to the optional light sensors and intelligent management services, the display adjusts its brightness automatically.
Typhoon tested
The C8 outdoor LED display meets Barco`s typhoon 24/7 test standards. In the typhoon test, not only the effect of water and dust (the basis for IP rating) is tested but also the impact of UV rays, varying temperatures and vibrations is taken into account. The typhoon, tested quality label guarantees a reliable product that can withstand the most severe weather conditions.

Used BARCO
Barco NV is a Belgian technology company that specializes in digital projection and imaging technology, focusing on three core markets: entertainment, enterprise, and healthcare.It employs 3600 employees located in 90 countries. The company has 400 granted patents.
Barco is headquartered in Kortrijk, Belgium, and has its own facilities for Sales & Marketing, Customer Support, R&D and Manufacturing in Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific. Shares of Barco are listed on Euronext Brussels.Barco sells its ClickShare products to enable wireless projection from sender devices to receiver displays.Barco is an acronym that originally stood for Belgian American Radio Corporation.
Barco was founded in 1934 in the town of Poperinge, in the Flemish-speaking region of Belgium. Founder Lucien de Puydt's initial business was to assemble radios from parts imported from the United States – hence the name of his company, the Belgium American Radio Corporation, or "Barco". Radio pioneer Camiel Descamps gave the company a new start in 1941 in Kortrijk after founder Lucien Depuydt died. His wife Maria-Anna Reyntjens and his brother-in-law Joseph Versavel assisted him. Later on, also Elie Timmerman joined them. Starting from their office in Kortrijk, the company started to grow and spread around 90 countries across the globe.
In 1949, Barco started developing a multi-standard television that accepted different signal standards, becoming a leader in that field. A jukebox called Barc-O-Matic was sold from 1951. In 1967, it was one of the first European companies to introduce color TV. Building on this, it then entered the professional broadcast market in the late 1960s, supplying TV monitors to broadcasters.
From the 1960s onwards, Barco branched out into numerous other activities, which included mechanical components for industrial use, and quality control monitoring for the textile and plastics industries. In 1967, Barco became the first European manufacturer to produce transistor-based portable televisions.
Barco first entered projection technology in 1979 when it pioneered the development of cathode ray tube (CRT) projection aboard airplanes. Over the following years, it gradually focused solely on professional markets. In the mid-1980s, Barco became a main projection technology supplier for computer giants IBM, Apple and Hewlett-Packard. In the late 1980s, it entered the Brussels stock market. By 1991, Barco's market share in the graphics projection market alone reached 75%, and the company had established offices across the world, including regional headquarters in the United States and East-Asia. Through the 1990s and the first decade of the new millennium, Barco developed and marketed new display technologies such as liquid crystal display (LCD), light-emitting diodes (LED), Texas Instruments' Digital Light Processing (DLP), and later, liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS). It now covers markets that include media and entertainment, security and monitoring, medical imaging, avionics, 3D and virtual reality, digital cinema, traffic control, broadcast and training and simulation.
In 2018, Barco entered into a joint venture with China Film Group Corporation (CFG), Appotronics and CITICPE to commercialize each company's products and services for the global cinema market excluding mainland China: Cinionic. In Barco's case, this involved the company's cinema projectors.

Fade: A gradual increase in video, i.e. a fade-in, or a gradual decrease in video, i.e. a fadeout.
Fast File: A video segment with entry and exit points but that is not interrupted by edited-in video clips.
Fiber Optic Cable: Glass, plastic, or hybrid fiber cable that transmits digital signals as light pulses.
First Person: A video told from the primary subject`s perspective. Firstperson videos most often include the word.
Front Screen Projection: This option allows an image to be projected onto a screen or sail from the front of the room. The unit itself is placed within or behind the audience.
F/Stop: A rating often applied to scrims used in the film and video industries on their ability to dim light. This rating is directly related to a camera`s ability to allow for the admittance of light.
Gray Scale: The ability for a video display to reproduce a neutral image color with a given input at various levels of intensity.
Hanging Dots: An artifact of composite video signals that appears as a stationary, zipper-like, horizontal border between colors.
High-Definition(HD, High-Def): An image that has a higher resolution and is clearer than other formats. It is widely accepted that 720p is the "bottom-end" on HD.
HDCP: High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection. Created by Intel, HDCP is used with HDTV signals over DVI and HDMI connections and on D-Theater D-VHS recordings to prevent unauthorized duplication of copyright material.
HDR: Hard-Drive Recorder. Device that uses a computer hard drive to store compressed digital audio and video signals.
HDMI: HDTV connection format using a DVI interface that transfers uncompressed digital video with HDCP copy protection and multichannel audio.
HDTV: High-Definition Television. The high-resolution subset of our DTV system. The FCC has no official definition for HDTV. The ATSC defines HDTV as a 16:9 image with twice the horizontal and vertical resolution of our existing system, accompanied by 5.1 channels of Dolby Digital audio. The CEA defines HDTV as an image with 720 progressive or 1080 interlaced active (top to bottom) scan lines. 1280:720p and 1920:1080i are typically accepted as high-definition scan rates.
High Gain Screen: Material that reflects more light than a reference material Increases a projector`s light output at the expense of uniformity.
IEEE 1394: Networking standard for PCs. Combined with 5C copy protection, is used as a two-way connection to transfer the MPEG-compressed digital bitstreams between consumer electronics items, including HDTV tuners and displays, D-VHS recorders, DVD players, and DBS receivers. Also called FireWire, iLink.
In Sync: When the picture and sound are synchronized perfectly.
Incue/Inq/In-Point: These words all refer to the initial few seconds of audio signifying the beginning of the production.
Interlace: Process of alternating scan lines to create a complete image. In CRT displays, every second field/frame is scanned between the first field/frame. The first field represents the odd lines the second field represents the even lines. The fields are aligned and timed so that, with a still image, the human eye blurs the two fields together and sees them as one. Interlace scanning allows only half the lines to be transmitted and presented at any given moment. A 1080i HD signal transmits and displays only 540 lines per 60th of a second. 480i NTSC transmits and displays only 240 lines per 60th of a second. Motion in the image can make the fields noticeable. Interlaced images have motion artifacts when two fields don`t match to create the complete frame, often most noticeable in film-based material.
Keystone: A form of video image distortion in which the top of the picture is wider than the bottom, or the left is taller than the right, or vice versa. The image is shaped like a trapezoid rather than a rectangle.
Laser Disc: Now-defunct 12-inch disc format with excellent analog, FMrecorded video image, and either analog or CD-quality PCM-encoded audio. Later discs used one of the analog channels to record an RF-modulated Dolby Digital/AC3 soundtrack and/or used the PCM tracks to encoded a DTS soundtrack.
LCD: Liquid Crystal Display. A display that consists of two polarizing transparent panels and a liquid crystal surface sandwiched in between. Voltage is applied to certain areas, causing the crystal to turn dark. A light source behind the panel transmits through transparent crystals and is mostly blocked by dark crystals.
LCOS: Liquid Crystal on Silicon.
Letterbox: Format used widely on laser disc and many DVDs to fit wideaspect-ratio movies (1.85:1 and 2.35:1, for example) into a smaller frame, such as the 1.78:1 area of an anamorphic DVD or the 1.33:1 area of a laser disc or video tape. The image is shrunk to fit the screen, leaving blank space on the top and bottom. This process sacrifices some vertical detail that must be used to record the black bars.
Live Shot:Video broadcasted in real-time.
Live Special Report (LSR): A news story broadcast in real-time covering breaking news or a special event.
Luminance: The black and white (Y) portion of a composite, Y/C, or Y/Pb/Pr video signal. The luminance channel carries the detail of a video signal. The color channel is laid on top of the luminance signal when creating a picture. Having a separate luminance channel ensures compatibility with black-andwhite televisions.
Man on the Street (MOS): Clips of randomly selected people speaking.The name originates from the practice of news crews interviewing people on street sidewalks.
Matte White:Projection vinyl with a smooth white surface.
