Mimir/research/README.md

Research Archive

This directory preserves implementation research and hard-won calibration lessons. It is allowed to mention external tools, papers, vendor docs, and failed paths because forgetting those days would be an expensive little act of self-sabotage.

Research is not runtime authority.

Use it to shape native implementation decisions:

• direct camera and audio drivers;
• pinned/native buffers;
• GPU feature extraction, flow, matching, and fusion;
• Aquarium D3D12 compute/render paths;
• Faust/native DSP;
• OBS-facing program outputs.

Do not promote mirrored examples, old probes, or external library demos into the Mimir hot path just because they exist here. If research points at a concept, rebuild the live version in the Mimir/Aquarium/native stack with a clear owner and invariant.
