When it comes to large-venue projection, Barco is the name that comes up again and again. Their laser projector lineup covers everything from boardroom presentations to arena-scale projection mapping — and we carry the full range for rental in New York City.
Why Laser Over Lamp?
If you’ve rented projectors before, you may have used lamp-based models. Barco’s laser phosphor technology offers significant advantages:
- No warm-up time: Full brightness in seconds, not minutes
- Consistent brightness: No gradual dimming over the event — laser maintains output for 20,000+ hours
- No lamp failures: Eliminates the risk of a lamp blowing mid-presentation
- Lower latency: Barco’s Pulse single-step processing delivers the lowest input lag in the industry — critical for live events
- Wider color gamut: Colors that exceed the Rec. 709 standard
Our Barco Rental Lineup
Barco G62-W9 (9,000 Lumens)
The G62 is the compact workhorse. At under 50 lbs, it’s easy to transport and set up. A compact workhorse for conference rooms and presentations:
- G62-W9: 9,000 lumens — boardrooms, small conference rooms
Barco I600-4K15 (15,000 Lumens)
The I600 bridges the gap between compact and large-venue. Its 4K resolution and 15,000 lumens make it versatile for corporate events, product launches, and medium-sized venues across Manhattan.
Barco UDM-4K22 (22,000 Lumens)
The UDM-4K22 is the lightest 22,000-lumen projector on the market at under 50kg. Native 4K UHD resolution delivers razor-sharp detail on screens up to 30 feet wide. This is our most popular rental for:
