it would be helpful to run rc on a laptop without nvidia gpu.

I’m only interested in running alignment stage, just to test the photos will stitch together later.

I wouldn’t be running any reconstruction on it. and it seems like there is very little gpu usage at this stage.

would this be possible?

thanks

Hello Chris,

I can confirm that, you don’t need (NVIDIA) GPU for alignment step.

I’ve now tested this out.

and works great.

very useful not needing to have a poweful gpu in laptop to check alignment.
