IDT launches 3D video frame rate converters

Integrated Device Technology (IDT) has announced what it claims is the industry's first motion-compensated frame rate conversion processors with an integrated resolution-enhancement engine for use in 120 Hz and 240 Hz television sets and high-definition video projectors.

The new IDT VHD1200 and VHD2400 devices feature advanced IDT HQV MotionSMART technology, which provides smooth motion and full-detail images while minimizing side effects seen with competitive solutions.

The frame-rate conversion processors are also 3D capable, providing smooth motion with minimal side effects, which is significant for 3D where varying side effects could be very distracting to viewers.

IDT HQV MotionSMART technology includes per-pixel processing, providing the capability to make intelligent localized decisions in the detection and processing of complex images and motion in video images.

The IDT solutions also feature cadence detection, which removes judder from sources with cadence, and a wide detection range to eliminate flickering when images move horizontally, vertically or diagonally on the screen.

The IDT VHD1200 and VHD 2400 processors are able to lock to a large range of motions to provide full detail with no judder on fast camera pans and small, fast-moving objects. The devices also feature the advanced HQV resolution enhancement engine for increased detail in high-definition images.
