A second and third installment of Avatar are in the works, and
at a recent comic convention Cameron said the
films may be shot
at a
higher frame rate than the industry standard to make the
film seem even more real.
The modulators can refresh their patterns
at 240 hertz, or 240 times a second, so even
at six patterns per
frame, the system could play video
at a
rate of 40 hertz, which, while below the refresh
rate common in today's TVs, is still
higher than the 24
frames per second standard in
film.
