Barco’s DP2K-32B digital cinema projector has earned a Guinness World Record as the brightest projector in the world. It has a measured and validated brightness of over 43,000 centre lumens in colour-calibrated mode.
The successful record attempt took place at Barco’s own facilities in Kuurne, Belgium, on 1 December. Witnessed and verified by Guinness adjudicator Kaoru Ishikawa, a Barco DP2K-32B digital cinema projector achieved an exact brightness of 43,000 lumens after colour correction to match the DCI color spectrum, measured at the centre of a 4m² cinema screen at a distance of 5m from the projector. A certificate proving the successful record attempt was presented in person by Miss Ishikawa to Wim Buyens, Vice President of Barco Digital Cinema.
The model used for the record attempt was an off-the-shelf Barco DP2K-32B, equipped with a standard 7 kW Ushio lamp.
