TAARenderPass

Temporal Anti-Aliasing Render Pass.

When there is no motion in the scene, the TAA render pass accumulates jittered camera samples across frames to create a high quality anti-aliased result.

Note: This effect uses no reprojection so it is no TRAA implementation.

Code Example

const taaRenderPass = new TAARenderPass( scene, camera );
taaRenderPass.unbiased = false;
composer.addPass( taaRenderPass );

Import

TAARenderPass is an addon, and must be imported explicitly, see Installation#Addons.

import { TAARenderPass } from 'three/addons/postprocessing/TAARenderPass.js';

Constructor

new TAARenderPass( scene : Scene, camera : Camera, clearColor : number | Color | string, clearAlpha : number )

Constructs a new TAA render pass.

scene | The scene to render.
---|---
camera | The camera.
clearColor | The clear color of the render pass. Default is 0x000000.
clearAlpha | The clear alpha of the render pass. Default is 0.

Properties

.accumulate : boolean

Whether to accumulate frames or not. This enables the TAA.

Default is false.

.accumulateIndex : number

The accumulation index.

Default is -1.

.sampleLevel : number

Overwritten and set to 0 by default.

Default is 0.

Overrides: SSAARenderPass#sampleLevel

Methods

.dispose()

Frees the GPU-related resources allocated by this instance. Call this method whenever the pass is no longer used in your app.

Overrides: SSAARenderPass#dispose

.render( renderer : WebGLRenderer, writeBuffer : WebGLRenderTarget, readBuffer : WebGLRenderTarget, deltaTime : number, maskActive : boolean )

Performs the TAA render pass.

renderer | The renderer.
---|---
writeBuffer | The write buffer. This buffer is intended as the rendering destination for the pass.
readBuffer | The read buffer. The pass can access the result from the previous pass from this buffer.
deltaTime | The delta time in seconds.
maskActive | Whether masking is active or not.

Overrides: SSAARenderPass#render
