Regal Cineworld Group and Barco have announced a new initiative to install 4,000 Barco Series 4 laser projectors in theaters across the United States, United Kingdom, and other European markets by 2030. The move aims to enhance the moviegoing experience for tens of millions of guests globally with the upgrade to laser delivering elevated movie presentation, image quality, operations, and environmental efficiencies for Regal Cineworld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regal Cineworld is leveraging an integrated tech stack for the global rollout that includes a Barco Series 4 projector and Barco media server for each installation. With the comprehensive Barco cinema technology system onboard, the exhibitor will enjoy enhanced fleet management and operations with seamless system integration and projector parts commonality. The deal also includes operator training benefits and real-time insights with Barco\u2019s connectivity solution to support operational efficiency. All sites will be marketed as featuring Barco\u2019s laser projection to highlight the upgraded cinema experience to moviegoers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regal Cineworld\u2019s wide move to laser also offers a more environmentally friendly way to present movies with less waste, including the elimination of consumables such as xenon lamps and a significant reduction in energy usage. Barco and Regal Cineworld have a nearly 20-year history, starting in 2007 with Barco\u2019s Series 1 digital cinema projectors. The collaboration between the companies expanded this year with the inclusion of three Regal Cineworld locations in the inaugural exhibition of HDR by Barco, the technology company\u2019s premium cinema HDR projection offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are excited to expand our relationship with Regal Cineworld and bring Laser by Barco to more moviegoers around the world,\u201d said Gerwin Damberg, the executive vice president of Barco Cinema. \u201cToday\u2019s audiences have high expectations for their entertainment experiences, and we look forward to delighting them with the stunning picture quality, high brightness, and crisp onscreen images that Barco laser projection is known for.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This deal further advances our shared ambition to deliver exceptional cinema experiences to global audiences,\u201d adds Casey Collins, Barco\u2019s vice president of sales cinema for North America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
