incoming video content by creating and inserting sixty entirely new frames between the existing sixty
frames in real time. In addition to creating new frames, Motionflow™ 120Hz technology also includes
an Image Blur Reduction algorithm, which reduces source image blur captured by the camera, as
well as a de-juddering circuit to help reduce jerking and stuttering during sweeping pans. The end
result is smoother, more fluid motion that delivers a natural and realistic viewing experience.
