Hitachi's Reel60 processing technology eliminates 'judder' {Engadget HD}

Sep 11th 2007 12:11AM Eliminating motion judder is not new at all. Philips invented it a long, long time ago with Digital Natural Motion. Eliminating it at FullHD resolutions however is. As far as I can tell this was initially achieved by the swiss company Micronas with their FRC chip. This has been licenced to Sharp, Grundig and Loewe. Next, JVC invented their own, called "clear motion drive". Now Philips have cracked the FullHD judder problem with "Perfect Pixel HD". Samsung has "movieplus" but this does not work at fullHD resolutions. I have not seen the Hitachi system in action but am very keen to do so. I have lived with motion corrected video for the last 7 years and cannot do without it now.
