I have not used the feature yet but one of the post processing blur
effects in the MegaPov patch of POV-Ray might be able to give you
this effect. For more information on MegaPov and it's features
follow this link - http://nathan.kopp.com/patched.htm

MegaPov is compatible with the official build of POV-Ray v3.1g plus
adds extra capabilities not yet available in the official version.
