PMOD is a Java application and is currently available for 64-bit operating systems: Windows, Linux and macOS. Workstations are recommended for high resolution or dynamic experimental data. 32 GB RAM, a multi-core processor and a dedicated mid to high-end graphics card are recommended (e.g. NVIDIA Quadro, 4GB VRAM. GeForce gaming cards not recommended).<\/p>\n

Version 4.5 and 4.4 supports both Intel and Apple Silicon (based on ARM architecture as M1, M2, M3) processors. Versions prior to 4.4 only support Intel processors.<\/p>\n
