The feature also benefits higher-end GPUs, allowing them to "render at an even higher resolution." "From the player's perspective, what was previously a game that would hitch and drop frames producing judder is now a game that constantly runs smoothly at 90Hz," Vlachos wrote. If that doesn't improve the situation, Motion Sensing can synthesize two or even three frames for every one delivered by the app.Īll the while, players experience the game's full frame rate. When Motion Smoothing kicks in, the app essentially renders one out of every two frames, "dramatically lowering the performance requirements," Vlachos wrote. Synthesizing new frames keeps the current application at full framerate, advances motion forward, and avoids judder." "It looks at the last two delivered frames, estimates motion and animation, and extrapolates a new frame. start dropping frames), Motion Smoothing kicks in," Valve Graphics Programmer Alex Vlachos explained (Opens in a new window) in a blog post. "When SteamVR sees that an application isn't going to make framerate (i.e. Valve just introduced a new SteamVR feature called Motion Smoothing that makes VR games work better with less lag on low-end PCs.
