  • Patent number: 8363117
    Abstract: A digital cinematographic and projection process that automatically adjusts for object motion within motion pictures in order to eliminate blur while increasing perceived impact of fast motion. The process includes, capturing an image having static and moving elements at a first frame rate, analyzing the image for motion/velocity components to detect the fast moving elements, reducing the static elements to a second frame rate, the second frame rate being slower than the first frame rate and retaining the fast moving element at the first frame rate.
