Syufy Enterprises becomes world’s largest digital drive-in with Barco

With Barco’s world record-winning DP2K-32B projectors, Syufy is achieving superior light levels, significantly enhancing the image quality of its outdoor movies. Digital projection in drive-in theaters presents unique challenges because of the long throws and ambient light conditions, making high brightness a critical requirement.

 
“Although we’d worked diligently to optimize the quality of our film projectors, the crispness, sharpness and color rendition of the Barco digital projectors are taking us to an amazing new level of image quality. Our customers noticed a big difference from the very first showing!” commented Michael Ghiorso, Vice President of Special Projects, Syufy Enterprises.

By installing Barco’s industry-leading DLP Cinema® projectors for 100 percent of its drive-in theaters located in California, Arizona and Nevada, Syufy becomes the world’s largest all-digital drive-in movie chain.
