Barco E2 Shines for Hawthorn

	Barco's E2 screen management system at work for Hawthorn

To keep up-to-date with the dynamic and changing event technology landscape, Hawthorn has just invested over £200,000 in the latest visual technology presentation equipment, with the acquisition of Barco's E2 screen management system. This is to expand already successful widescreen and ultra-widescreen solutions that Hawthorn has been providing for events for many years. The acquisition complements the 50-plus 10K and 20K projectors and diverse media play out solutions already held within Hawthorn's extensive stock.

Barco E2 raises the bar for live screen management. The E2 presentation system provides superior image quality, exceptional input and output diversity, great expandability and durability. Supporting native 4K input and output, the company says it is the first and only screen management system on the market that can manage a 4K projector blend with refresh rates up to 60Hz. A truly versatile system, it allows full show control with a single box.

Whether planning a large or small event, where the ultimate in presentation quality and control is going to engage audiences in high-quality visual experiences, the Barco E2 allows for super-enhancement of those experiences. The flexibility of the system allows even more creativity in creating amazing visual presentation effects.
