-### 🚀 Key Technical Breakthroughs
-
-- **Protocol V3 (Columnar Binary)**: Uses TypedArrays to store coordinates, angles, and descriptors in a cache-aligned layout. No more thousands of slow JavaScript objects.
-- **Zero-Copy Loading**: The runtime reads directly from the binary buffer. Initialization is now virtualy instant.
-- **Aggressive Matching Optimization**: Tree-based hierarchical clustering compacted into a flattened binary format.
-- **No Dependencies**: Works in Node.js and Browser with zero external requirements for the compilation core.

-### 🖥️ Usage (Node.js & Serverless)
+## 🖼️ Compiler Usage (Node.js & Web)
 
-Optimized for server-side compilation with multi-core parallelism:
+The compiler is designed to run in workers (Node.js or Browser) for maximum performance.
 
 ```javascript
 import { OfflineCompiler } from '@srsergio/taptapp-ar';
 
 const compiler = new OfflineCompiler();
 
-// Compile target image
-const compiledData = await compiler.compileImageTargets(
+// Compile target image (provide grayscale pixel data)
+await compiler.compileImageTargets(
   [{ width, height, data: grayscaleUint8Array }], 
   (progress) => console.log(`Compiling: ${progress}%`)
 );
 
-// Export to Protocol V3 binary format
-const binaryBuffer = compiler.exportData(); // Yields a much smaller .mind file
+// Export to high-efficiency binary format
+const binaryBuffer = compiler.exportData(); 
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎥 Runtime Usage (AR Tracking)
+
+### 1. Simple A-Frame Integration
+The easiest way to use TapTapp AR in a web app:
+
+```html
+<script src="https://aframe.io/releases/1.5.0/aframe.min.js"></script>
+<script src="path/to/@srsergio/taptapp-ar/dist/index.js"></script>
+
+<a-scene mindar-image="imageTargetSrc: ./targets.mind;">
+  <a-camera position="0 0 0" look-controls="enabled: false"></a-camera>
+  <a-entity mindar-image-target="targetIndex: 0">
+    <a-plane position="0 0 0" height="0.552" width="1"></a-plane>
+  </a-entity>
+</a-scene>
 ```
 
-### 🌐 Frontend (Zero-Latency Loading)
+### 2. High-Performance Three.js Wrapper
+For custom Three.js applications:
 
 ```javascript
-import { OfflineCompiler } from '@srsergio/taptapp-ar';
+import { MindARThree } from '@srsergio/taptapp-ar';
 
-const compiler = new OfflineCompiler();
-// Loading 127KB instead of 800KB saves bandwidth and CPU parsing time
-compiler.importData(binaryBuffer); 
+const mindarThree = new MindARThree({
+  container: document.querySelector("#container"),
+  imageTargetSrc: './targets.mind',
+});
+
+const {renderer, scene, camera} = mindarThree;
+
+const anchor = mindarThree.addAnchor(0);
+// Add your 3D models to anchor.group
+
+await mindarThree.start();
+renderer.setAnimationLoop(() => {
+  renderer.render(scene, camera);
+});
 ```

+### 3. Raw Controller (Advanced & Custom Engines)
+The `Controller` is the core engine of TapTapp AR. You can use it to build your own AR components or integrate tracking into custom 3D engines.
+
+#### ⚙️ Controller Configuration
+| Property | Default | Description |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| `inputWidth` | **Required** | The width of the video or image source. |
+| `inputHeight` | **Required** | The height of the video or image source. |
+| `maxTrack` | `1` | Max number of images to track simultaneously. |
+| `warmupTolerance` | `5` | Frames of consistent detection needed to "lock" a target. |
+| `missTolerance` | `5` | Frames of missed detection before considering the target "lost". |
+| `filterMinCF` | `0.001` | Min cutoff frequency for the OneEuroFilter (reduces jitter). |
+| `filterBeta` | `1000` | Filter beta parameter (higher = more responsive, lower = smoother). |
+| `onUpdate` | `null` | Callback for tracking events (Found, Lost, ProcessDone). |
+| `debugMode` | `false` | If true, returns extra debug data (cropped images, feature points). |
+| `worker` | `null` | Pass a custom worker instance if using a specialized environment. |
+
+#### 🚀 Example: Tracking a Video Stream
+Ideal for real-time AR apps in the browser:
 
-## 🏗 Development
+```javascript
+import { Controller } from '@srsergio/taptapp-ar';
+
+const controller = new Controller({
+  inputWidth: video.videoWidth,
+  inputHeight: video.videoHeight,
+  onUpdate: (data) => {
+    if (data.type === 'updateMatrix') {
+      const { targetIndex, worldMatrix } = data;
+      if (worldMatrix) {
+        console.log(`Target ${targetIndex} detected! Matrix:`, worldMatrix);
+        // Apply worldMatrix (Float32Array[16]) to your 3D object
+      } else {
+        console.log(`Target ${targetIndex} lost.`);
+      }
+    }
+  }
+});
+
+await controller.addImageTargets('./targets.mind');
+controller.processVideo(videoElement); // Starts the internal RAF loop
+```
 
-```bash
-# Install dependencies
-npm install
+#### 📸 Example: One-shot Image Matching
+Use this for "Snap and Detect" features without a continuous video loop:
+
+```javascript
+const controller = new Controller({ inputWidth: 1024, inputHeight: 1024 });
+await controller.addImageTargets('./targets.mind');
+
+// 1. Detect features in a static image
+const { featurePoints } = await controller.detect(canvasElement);
+
+// 2. Attempt to match against a specific target index
+const { targetIndex, modelViewTransform } = await controller.match(featurePoints, 0);
 
-# Build the package
-npm run build
+if (targetIndex !== -1) {
+  // Found a match! Use modelViewTransform for initial pose estimation
+}
 ```
 
-The package uses **TypeScript** and exports both ESM and CJS compatible builds located in the `dist` folder.
+#### 🛠️ Life-cycle Management
+Properly management is crucial to avoid memory leaks:
+
+```javascript
+// Stop the video loop
+controller.stopProcessVideo();
+
+// Clean up workers and internal buffers
+controller.dispose();
+```

-## 📄 License
+## 🏗️ Protocol V3 (Columnar Binary Format)
+TapTapp AR uses a proprietary columnar binary format that is significantly more efficient than standard JSON-based formats.
+
+- **Zero-Copy Restoration**: Binary buffers are mapped directly to TypedArrays.
+- **Cache Locality**: Performance is optimized for modern CPUs by keeping coordinates and descriptors adjacent in memory.
+- **Alignment Safe**: Automatically handles `ArrayBuffer` alignment for predictable behavior across all browsers.
