Note: Cognex strongly recommends the use of NVIDIA Quadro and Tesla GPUs for the following reasons: These GPUs support the compute-optimized Tesla Compute Cluster (TCC) mode. These GPUs are designed and tested for continuous duty-cycle operation. These GPUs undergo rigorous testing and qualification by NVIDIA. ViDi 3.3.0 supports the use of any NVIDIA® CUDA® enabled GPU that provides a compute capability of 3.0 and higher, and requires a driver version greater than or equal to 411.31. For information about supported drivers, please visit the Cognex Support Site VisionPro ViDi Software Drive Support page. CUDA compute capability 3.0 or higher is required to use the core ViDi functionality. The Low Precision parameter requires CUDA compute capability 6.1 or higher (for more information, visit the NVIDIA website). A minimum of 4 GB of GPU memory is required for runtime operation, and a minimum of 8 GB of GPU memory is required for training. The NVIDIA GeForce Titan V, Quadro GV100 and Tesla V100 include NVIDIA Tensor Cores. ViDi 3.3.0 will automatically utilize Tensor Cores if they are present, provided you have a Standard or Advanced security license. Please contact your Cognex Sales Representative for information about enabling the functionality on your Cognex Dongle.
