These requirements define the minimum configuration needed to install, run and use arivis Pro for basic visualization and analysis.

The software is designed to process very large image datasets using tiling and temporary local storage, so the entire dataset does not need to fit into RAM. As a result, local storage and a suitable GPU are more important than very large amounts of RAM for basic operation.

Requirement

Notes

Operating system

  • Microsoft Windows 11 64-bit
  • N / KN editions only work after installing the Media Feature Pack.
  • It also works with other 64bit Windows versions (e.g. Windows 10 and Windows Server).

CPU

  • 4-Core x86 compatible CPU (64-bit)

System memory (RAM)

  • 8GB RAM (minimum)
  • More RAM improves performance but is not required for basic operation.
  • arivis Pro can process datasets larger than available RAM using disk-based tilling and temporary documents.

Local storage

  • 100 GB free local disk space (minimum)
  • Local storage is used for active datasets, temporary documents and intermediate processing results.
  • Insufficient free disk space will severely limit performance and may prevent analysis.

Graphics hardware

– minimum

  • NVIDIA GPU
  • Open GL 4.6 or higher
  • 2 GB VRAM
  • Latest NVIDIA graphics driver
  • Supported example: GeForce RTX 3060 (or mobile equivalent)
  • Note: Intel and AMD GPUs may work for visualization, but are not supported. NVIDIA GPUs are strongly recommended because CUDA is required for accelerated analysis and machine learning.

– optimal

  • NVIDIA GPU
  • Open GL 4.6 or higher
  • 8 GB VRAM
  • Latest NVIDIA graphics driver
  • Supported example: GeForce RTX 4070 (or mobile equivalent)
  • Note: Intel and AMD GPUs may work for visualization, but are not supported. NVIDIA GPUs are strongly recommended because CUDA is required for accelerated analysis and machine learning.

Required software components

  • The components are installed automatically by the arivis Pro installer.

Virtual memory (page file)

  • Page file size of at least 1.5 x physical RAM
  • To ensure the smooth operation of arivis Pro, it's crucial to have a properly configured virtual memory (page file) setup, as it extends physical RAM and helps manage system resources effectively, and prevents encountering memory-related issues or crashes.
