# About This Release

As the release of VisionPro Deep Learning 1.0.1, VisionPro Deep Learning now supports NVIDIA GeForce® RTX™ 30 series (RTX 3090, RTX 3080 and RTX 3070). This version also brings Optimized GPU Memory option in Parameter Search for the efficient use of Focused Mode and High-detail Mode (HDM). See the details below for more information.

[New Content]

- Support for NVIDIA GeForce® RTX™ 30 series.

- VisionPro Deep Learning 1.0.1 supports RTX 3090, RTX 3080 and RTX 3070 for all tasks.

- If you're exploiting multiple GPUs, all of them should be consist of RTX™ 30 series of the same type and of the same specification. See Use of Multiple GPUs for more details.

- Currently, there are some known issues relating to NVIDIA driver versions and Processing Time. See Known Issues for more details.

- Support for Optimized GPU Memory in Parameter Search

- If you use Focused Mode in Parameter Search, you can set and use Optimized GPU Memory.
- If you use HDM in Parameter Search, Optimized GPU Memory is automatically disabled for the efficiency of HDM.

[Deprecated features]

- There are no corresponding topics for this release.

[Miscellaneous]

- Since "Set Group" is no longer supported from 1.0.0, you can delete “Group” with Script Editor when you migrated a workspace including “Group” from ViDi Suite. See FAQ for more details.

Note:

- The VisionPro, Designer and VisionPro Deep Learning software require that a valid Cognex Security Dongle be installed directly to PCs running the software during all phases of operation (programming, processing, training, testing, etc.). Any attempts to temporarily remove, substitute, or share a Cognex Security Dongle may cause your system to operate incorrectly, and may result in the loss of data.

  When VisionPro Deep Learning is configured for the Client/Server functionality, and a computer has been configured as a server, the Cognex Security Dongle must be attached to the server, but the client(s) does not need a Cognex Security Dongle.

- Sample code is included with the VisionPro Deep Learning 1.0.1 installer. The resources for the sample code (VisionPro Deep Learning 1.0 Sample Code Resource.msi), which include images and workspaces, are available for download from the Cognex Support Site.
- For more information about new API functionality in this release, see the Cognex VisionPro Deep Learning Suite .NET Library and Cognex VisionPro Deep Learning Suite C API help files.

# Introducing Cognex Deep Learning™

- VisionPro Deep Learning is Cognex’s new PC-based deep learning software product. It is the direct successor to VisionPro ViDi™. The first release of VisionPro Deep Learning adds a new “High Detail” mode to the existing ViDi Classifier, which is now known as “Focused” mode. High Detail mode was originally developed as part of the SuaKIT™ product. It provides highly accurate results for a wide range of challenging applications, while Focused mode typically trains and runs faster. Users can switch between modes without relabeling the images. This makes it easy to determine which mode offers the best combination of accuracy & speed for any particular application.

- VisionPro Deep Learning is compatible with VisionPro ViDi, including API, project loading and security dongles. Some changes have been made to Cognex Designer® support. See Using Runtime Workspace with Cognex Designer topic for details.

- SuaKIT users can import SuaKIT classification project into VisionPro Deep Learning 1.0. (VisionPro Deep Learning 1.0 doesn’t support the import of the other SuaKIT projects yet.). They can then take advantage of the other features of Cognex Deep Learning Studio, including the Blue Locate and OCR tools, tool chaining, and access to VisionPro® and Designer.
