JVC announced its second generation Clear Motion Drive high-speed LCD television technology that bumps refresh rates up to 120Hz, as did the previous generation. But this new development is designed specifically for full 1920 x 1080 resolution displays. The design should benefit viewers of both video and gaming graphics with its reduction of blurring the flickering.

JVC’s original CMD technology was applied to a 720p LCD panel and detected only horizontal motion. In the new HD, the Clear Motion Drive detects image data from more than 8,000 surrounding dots in a frame to create a pixel and calculate movement from the current frame to the next. This process is performed on all two million pixels (1920 x 1080) in a frame to interpolate for movement in all directions.

JVC will bring out three HD LCD TV models using CMD II this fall. Plans are for a 47-inch, the LT-47X898, the 42-inch LT- 42X898 and the 37-inch LT-37X898. JVC says each will offer three HDMI 1.3 compatible inputs as well as a new cabinet with a bezel of less than 1.5 inches and a cabinet that is shorter and narrower than previous models in the same screen size.
