Hardware and Software Requirements

Hardware Requirements

Requirements differ based on how you plan to use the application, as the number of images, resolution, and modules used can significantly affect the amount of GPU memory required.

To use Pekat, an NVIDIA GPU with CUDA compute capability 6.1, 7.5, 8.6 (check on NVIDIA website) and at least 8 GB of memory is required (the memory consumption depends on used modules and image sizes).

 

For training AI modules we recommend at least NVIDIA GeForce® RTX 3060 (12 GB) or above.

 

For price-sensitive projects a less powerful NVIDIA GPU may be used, however, this can result in longer processing times. Additionally, GPU memory requirements may change if additional modules or higher image resolution are required.

For more information on GPU memory usage, please contact support at PEKAT VISION Customer Portal or contact support@pekatvision.com

Software Requirements

Operating system

Supported systems are mainly Windows 10 or Windows 11.
