Most televisions show pictures at a refresh rate of 50Hz. Hz is a measure of the number of frames shown per second. The standard UK broadcast signal is 50Hz – meaning that the image on your standard TV is refreshed 50 times every second. 50Hz is a relatively slow rate and it is possible to see blurring in the picture when watching fast moving sporting events or action movies.
100Hz technology helps you enjoy all the action without none or reduced blurring. With 100Hz TVs, this is achieved by creating intermediate frames and inserting them between the original frames. This doubles the number of frames shown per second which helps to reduce the blurring and is ideal for watching action movies and sports.
