non-depolarizing screen 

Two 3D optimized  
LCD projectors

Linear-polarized 

Barco glasses

are matched to linear-

polarized Barco projectors, and they offer an excellent
quality-to-price value for 

stereo viewing with large

audiences

.

Circular Polarization

With circular polarization, the viewer can tilt his head
and change his viewing angle relative to the
stereoscopic projection display, because the light is not
polarized in a single direction. 

As this high-end technology demands 

greater

precision

and requires a tighter match between the

polarizing filters in the light path of the projectors and
those in the glasses, the use of 

Barco high-quality

circular eyewear

is recommended. 

Easy to use and comfortable to wear

, polarized

passive stereo eyewear have no active components and
are thus 

very affordable for large audiences

Overview Barco glasses: www.vr.barco.com

Some alternative technologies available today, like
Barco I

NFITEC

, incorporate stereo information into the

color wavelengths of the projected image. 
This solution results in excellent separation, especially in
combination with DLP™ projectors, while reducing the
color range and brightness.

Barco LCD projectors are each internally
polarized 

to its corresponding left and right eye

information, eliminating the requirement for external
filters. With Barco’s internal polarization 70% of the
original light output is maintained, making this
technology 

the most efficient method available

to

obtain 

high stereo lumen brightness levels
