ReconstructMe performs most of its operations directly on the GPU. ReconstructMe utilizes OpenCL to communicate with your device. Therefore, ReconstructMe supports all graphic cards that support OpenCL.

Please consult your vendor specifications to ensure that your GPU is compatible with ReconstructMe. Usually all decent cards from NVIDIA, AMD or INTEL are supported. Note that OpenCL is not limited to graphic cards but can work with any accelerator device, such as CPUs. Most vendors offer OpenCL drivers for their CPUs as well.

Make sure to install the latest driver before running ReconstructMe.

OpenCL.dll provides the language ReconstructMe uses to communicate with your graphics card. OpenCL.dll is usually being installed by your display driver. Older display drivers, however, do not support OpenCL.dll. Therefore, please update your display driver and note that your graphics card needs to support OpenCL (which most decent graphics cards do) to run ReconstructMe.
