## What it is
A Unity library implementing Temporal Reprojection Anti-Aliasing, the anti-aliasing solution used in Playdead's game INSIDE. It provides camera components and shaders for Unity 5.0+ to reduce aliasing via temporal accumulation with motion vectors.

## Use cases
- reduce aliasing in Unity games without MSAA
- add temporal anti-aliasing to Unity cameras
- implement TAA like INSIDE in my Unity project
- smooth jagged edges in Unity rendering
- get motion vectors for moving meshes in Unity

## When to choose
- you are building a Unity 5.0+ project and want high-quality temporal anti-aliasing
- you want to study or adapt a proven TAA implementation from a shipped AAA-style game

## When to avoid
- you use a modern engine with built-in TAA (Unity post-processing, Unreal)
- your project targets Unity versions where the code no longer compiles without porting
- you need actively maintained support or documentation

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: graphics, image-processing
- domain: graphics
- platform: game-engine, cross-platform
- tags: unity, anti-aliasing, temporal-reprojection, shaders, rendering, game-development
