# 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, depth, and fusion;
- Fensalir D3D12 compute/render paths;
- Faust/native DSP;
- OBS-facing program outputs.
Visual/GPU research entry points:
- [[d3d12-stereo-depth-provenance-2026-05-29|D3D12 Stereo Depth Provenance]]:
libSGM is the current permissive north-star reference for a future
Fensalir-owned D3D12 compute stereo-disparity lane. External CUDA/TensorRT
projects are provenance only, not runtime authority.
Audio timing research entry points:
- [[chirplet-sync-decoder/summary|Chirplet Sync Decoder Summary]]: chirplet
transform notes, why dense
matched-filter search was cut from the hybrid hot path, and the current
dechirp plus FFT/Goertzel decoder shape.
- [[live-adaptive-sync/summary|Live Adaptive Sync Summary]]: passive
program-audio synchronization and
sample-rate-offset estimation.
- [[feedback-calibration/summary|Feedback Calibration Summary]]: online
room/speaker/mic response
calibration.
- [[ambisonic-aquasynth/summary|Ambisonic AquaSynth Summary]]: spatial audio
and Ambisonic reference
material; useful background, not a license to call unsynchronized mics a
coherent field.
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/Fensalir/native stack with a clear owner
and invariant.
