Barco, a leading provider of laser cinema technology, showcased two new products at CinemaCon 2025: the Smart Cinema Amplifier and the mFusion ICMP-XS integrated audio and media server. These innovations aim to significantly enhance audio experiences and streamline theater operations.

The Smart Cinema Amplifier offers powerful, dynamic sound designed specifically for integration with Barco’s popular Series 4 laser projectors.

By combining audio and visual technology, theater operators gain simplified control and provide audiences with a more seamless cinematic experience.

The mFusion ICMP-XS builds upon the legacy of Barco’s Alchemy media server, featuring advanced audio processing and the capability for live streaming content.

It handles simultaneous content management tasks—such as ingest, playback, and transfer—up to five times faster, meeting the demands of contemporary theaters.

With a user-friendly interface derived from the Barco Series 4 system, the mFusion can be operated from various devices, including PCs, handhelds, and built-in projector touch screens. This intuitive design enhances workflow efficiency and reduces operational interruptions.

Both the Smart Cinema Amplifier and mFusion are compatible with leading market brands but offer additional benefits when used alongside Barco’s Series 4 laser projectors. These benefits include improved fleet management and better operational control.

Additionally, Barco emphasizes sustainable design practices, utilizing modular construction to reduce environmental impact.

Gerwin Damberg, Barco Cinema’s EVP, noted, “We are honored that cinemas worldwide have chosen Laser by Barco and Barco Series 4 for their move to laser projection,” highlighting the company’s dedication to delivering value-added, innovative solutions.
