Unity after image?

    This is a known artifact due to slow pixel luminance response times of the OLED displays in Rift and other displays. We use an "overdrive" shader to correct for it, but it isn't 100% effective for very dark or high-contrast images. It may be fixed in future hardware a year or more from now. The best workaround today is to use lower light/dark contrasts in your content.

Could you clarify the "overdrive" shader? Is this already implemented into the Oculus/Unity code? Or is this something that needs to be turned on/implemented by the developers?
