LumenRT is a 64-bit application, designed for Windows® 64 bits Win 7 Win 8.1, and Win 10 operating systems. As of LumenRT Connect Edition Update 1, Mac support has been suspended until Apple introduces higher performance real-time 3D graphics capabilities. LumenRT is either CPU or GPU intensive depending on the task being performed. The pre-processing phase is CPU intensive while the navigation/viewing process is GPU intensive.

Performance of the software is directly related to the power of the system running it. LumenRT is optimized to make the best of all the processors/cores on your system. The power of your video board directly impacts the frame-rate during real-time 3D play-back
