SMAA

SMAA (Subpixel Morphological Anti-Aliasing) is a post-processing technique that delivers high-quality edge smoothing with minimal performance impact. SMAA uses edge detection and pattern recognition algorithms to identify and selectively process jagged edges.

SMAA works in three passes:

  • Edge detection to identify problematic areas

  • Pattern analysis to determine the optimal blending weights

  • Final blending to smooth the identified edges
