# Post-processing effect availability reference > Explore Unity's post-processing effects and find which render pipelines support them. This table contains information on which post-processing effects and full-screen effects are available in Unity's different post-processing solutions, how to find those effects, and what other effects you can use to achieve a similar result. In previous versions of Unity, you applied all post-processing effects and full-screen effects in the same way; by adding components to a Camera. In more recent versions of Unity, you can apply these effects in different ways. > **Note:** > > Unity implements effects differently depending on the render pipeline you are using. This means that effects vary in terms of performance, appearance, and configuration between packages. ## Post-processing effects and pipeline support | **Effect Name** | **Description** | **Available in URP integrated solution?** | **Available in HDRP integrated solution?** | **Available in PPv2 package?** | | --------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Ambient Occlusion | The **Ambient Occlusion** effect darkens the areas in your scene that are not exposed to ambient lighting. | YesSee [Universal Render Pipeline: Ambient Occlusion](/engine/6000.0/manual/lighting-overview/lighting/shadows-in-urp/post-processing-ssao/ssao.md)You can also apply Ambient Occlusion as part of your baked lighting.
