If you are chasing cheap upscaling without understanding motion vectors, you are inviting ghosting, smear, and late-stage visual panic. Motion vectors are not optional once temporal techniques enter your pipeline.
This module explains where vectors come from, how camera-only vs per-object modes change both quality and cost, and why transparent content is a special risk zone. You get the operational lens, not just theory.
The evidence frame is hands-on: inspect vector passes in Frame Debugger, check channels and render targets, and compare artifact behavior when vector settings are wrong versus correct under temporal effects like TAA and modern upscalers.
Your next dev step: classify moving vs static renderers, set vector mode accordingly, then capture before/after with Frame Debugger and profiler to compare ghosting reduction against added draw-call pressure.
CEO/Producer translation: correct motion-vector policy unlocks higher perceived quality per performance dollar across temporal rendering features.
