Duet II
Barco’s proprietary active to passive stereo converter
Barco’s DUET II is a state-of-the-art,
groundbreaking technology with patent
pending features that elevates the
performance of Barco’s passive stereo
display systems to new levels.
The D
UET II has the highest active-to-
passive stereo conversion bandwidth on
the market today, dramatically increasing
the attainable resolution for passive
stereo visualization systems to UXGA. The
patent pending Stereo-Lumens Boost
Mode nearly doubles the projector stereo
brightness for all Barco LCD projector
platforms. It closes the loop in providing
a full digital path for passive stereo.
Image quality is further enhanced by the
innovative I-L
OCK™ technology.
High Bandwidth Active-to-Passive
Stereo Conversion
• Supports high-resolution active stereo
signals up to 1600x1200@110Hz
• Supports both high-bandwidth RGB
and DVI
• Full digital path available without
D/A/D-conversion losses
• Advanced electrical design resulting
in market-leading Image Locking
