RGB Laser delivers roughly double the brightness of the lamp or LED engine it replaces, while cutting power consumption by up to 50% at higher brightness levels. That combination is rare: most technology upgrades trade one for the other.
Prolong the lifetime of your RPC video wall
Get a brighter, sharper, quieter wall – without touching the frame you already own.
Your video wall has been running for years, and it still does the job. But lamp and LED engines fade. Colors drift. Maintenance calls get more frequent. Replacing the entire wall feels like overkill when the real problem is just the light source.
That's exactly the gap RGB Laser upgrade kits close. Barco fits a new RGB Laser projection module into the mechanical structure you already have, so the wall you invested in keeps working, only better. At a much lower cost than a completely new installation.
Why upgrade
Lamp and LED sources lose saturation over time. RGB Laser holds its color point for the long run, giving you deeper, more accurate colors, sharper focus, and stronger contrast from day one to year ten.
RGB Laser modules are rated for a longer operational lifetime, including 24/7 use. And they do it at a noise level Barco describes as "library quiet," about 25% quieter than the previous generation.
How the upgrade works
No new wall. No new frame. No downtime.
The RGB Laser module slots into your existing mechanical structure, so there's zero architectural or physical impact on your control room, studio, or venue. Installation takes 50% less effort thanks to motorized 7-axis alignment, and the upgrade can be performed without taking the system offline.
If your wall is a 50", 67", 70" or 80" cube running on lamp or LED, it's very likely a candidate. Check the spec overview for your exact model.
Your wall isn't done yet. Give it the light source it deserves.
Smarter calibration, built in
Every upgrade kit brings your wall onto Sense X, Barco's current automatic calibration technology, replacing the older Sense6 generation. Sense X continuously monitors and corrects color and brightness in real time, so tiles stay matched to each other automatically, without manual re-calibration. Combined with redundancy on critical components, it's a system built to be left alone and simply trusted.
The bottom line
| Lamp/LED (before) | RGB Laser (after) | |
|---|---|---|
| Brightness | Baseline | Up to 2x higher |
| Power draw | Baseline | Up to 50% lower |
| Noise level | Baseline | ~25% quieter |
| Calibration | Sense6 | Sense X (automatic, real time) |
| Installation effort | Baseline | 50% less |
Lower total cost of ownership. Higher image quality. A wall that's ready for years of extra service. That's the upgrade, in one table.
Many years of additional service, at much lower costs, without infrastructural works. Sounds too good to be true? It's not. Contact us to see what we can do for your organization.
