I'm creating an effect where a bar moves back and forth across the screen, and when the user clicks a button it will stop on a particular spot.

I have the effect down but I need to give it some speed; the problem is that when I increase the speed it creates this blurring effect because its moving so fast. Is there anyway I can smooth the movement out without decreasing the speed?

I'm not sure there's anything you can do about this because it's kind of like waving your hand really fast while you watch. You can't really get a clear picture of your hand through your eyes. If you take a screenshot at any point in time while it's moving, it doesn't show a blurred sprite but the sprite in its proper shape and form.

Yes, a bionic eye upgrade may be required ;p . I don't think this is anything other than what Hodgey suggests above. The use of sine will probably be increasing the effect, as it will smooth out the direction change.
