What is TruMotion?


In fact, TruMotion is a technology introduced by LG for its LCD TVs. To alleviate the image lag and blurring problems of LCD panels, LG suppresses blurred image continuity through image screen insertion where black remains on the screen for half the time (120Hz) or a quarter of the time (240Hz), intermediate image interpolation or backlight scanning, and rapid motion for a sharper, clearer and more defined viewing experience.

Simply put, this means inserting a transition frame between your two frames so that you can achieve a ×2 effect of 120 fps from an original 60 fps only.
