Experience precise motion clarity.

Golf balls roll clearly, with less blurring, as the camera follows them across the green. Footballs retain their detail and move 

smoothly as the camera quickly pans down the field during kickoff. Even fast moving action sequences like fight scenes 

appear amazingly realistic since Motionflow XR 240 takes motion clarity beyond refresh rates, which are only measured in 

Hz, to double the motion effect for lifelike clarity.
