The Apple Type Services for Unicode Imaging (ATSUI) is the set of services for rendering Unicode-encoded text starting with Mac OS 8.5 and in Mac OS X.

It replaced the WorldScript engine for legacy encodings.

Incidentally, "atsui" (あつい) means "hot" or "thick" in Japanese.

[edit] Obsolescence

ATSUI was replaced by a more robust[citation needed] and modern Unicode imaging engine called Core Text in Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard).
