Page 9: Introduction
About the Galaxy NW series The Barco Galaxy NW series projector is the world’s ﬁrst active stereoscopic projector with Windows desktop integration that can project 2D mono and 3D stereo images simultaneously with a native WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution. It is a network-centric projector, which greatly increases its ease-of-use in image critical and virtual reality applications with large amount of data.
