    Hello,

    You can run Zephyr with Amazon EC2 with the g2.2xlarge instance type (this is actually the only GPU instance available on amazon).

    Please note that when installing Zephyr on a clean windows installation on amazon EC2 you must:

    - install the nVidia cuda driver
    - do not use Microsoft's RDP to log in. Basically RDP force a different video driver, so you can't use zephyr if you're logging in with RDP. You can use other remote desktop software (such as hamachi, vnc, splashtop, etc)

    let me know if you need further help setting up your EC2 instance!

      As a side note, I suggest you to install the cuda developers drivers:
      https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads
      as the standard drivers doesn't support cuda 6.5 yet on the grid K520

        I need to input the rotation matrix of each image but i am probably doing something wrong, i think i might be using the wrong reference?

        Iam using zephyr 1.1 evaluation 64 bits

        thank you - GM

          Hello,
          you can import rotation/translation information also in the evaluation. Please note that have to be accurate as no adjustment is made on them during importing. The rotation can be either specifying by means of euler angles or (better) by directly specifying the full 3x3 matrix. If you have problems you can send us an example.

        Hello Grumpy Mouse,

        It's not possible to view the rotation matrix with the evaluation software of 3DF Zephyr. I'm sending you via email a trial license for the full version of 3DF Zephyr Pro: once you've installed it, just open the export - export cameras and points dialog. Let me know if you need further help!
