I believe this was hinted to on this forum in another thread. Barco to launch their own IMS - developed in house. Capable of 2D 60fps @4k and 3D 30fps @ 4k. 4k input via HDMI or dual display port. Uses two slots on a series 2 Barco, replaces ICP board to enable high frame capability. No Atmos support but seems to have all the other bells and whistles.

I'm so glad I invested my money into a Barco DCI unit. I have had my Barco DP4K-23B for exactly two years. With this new board, it's basically a brand new projector capable of all the latest technologies.
Barco has showed it truly cares about it's customers!
