Hi Zahra,

No minimal configuration for SOFA. However, obviously, the stronger your configuration is, the faster your simulation will run!
About GPU, SOFA does not activate the GPU versions of SOFA by default. Therefore, no need of a GPU card. Nevertheless, if you want to run GPU codes, all you have to do is activate the SofaCUDA plugin.
Does this answer your question?

Cheers,

Hi Hugo,

Yes, this is my answer. Thank you for your explanation.

Best,

Zahra

I once managed to build and launch runSofa on a Raspberry Pi 2.
It runs the default caduceus scene at 2 FPS. This is clearly a borderline case, bu to give you an idea…
