SoftOrbits offers two paths, based on difference in power and control.

Approach 1: Generation New Image (SoftOrbits Online Service)

Creation complex art-drawing “from scratch” requires huge computational power.

  • Tool: SoftOrbits Online Service Artistic Effects.
  • Principle: Algorithms completely draw new art-picture, using your snapshot only as reference. This is generation new art-object via AI, not rework existing pixels.
  • Styles: Extensive groups presets: Art, AI Sketch, Classic Sketch.
  • Power: Process requires powerful server GPUs. Execute such generation on home PC practically impossible. Online service provides instant access this power.

Approach 2: Local Photo Stylization (PC Programs)

If needed rework existing image with fine, manual style setting, local programs used.

  1. Painting and Paints (Picture to Painting Converter)

  • Focus: Transformation photo into drawing made with pencil, pen or charcoal.
  • Styles: Various types sketches and graphic drawings.
  • Settings: Unique ability adjust type and length hatching. Achieved individual, “manual” look.

 

Hardware: Requirements for Local Work

Local processing requires specific configuration.

Task Recommended Equipment Note
Online Generation Any PC (processing on server). Power not required.
Local Stylization GPU Nvidia with 12 GB VRAM (Optimal). Minimum: 6 GB VRAM.
AI Speed Nvidia RTX 40-series for maximum speed. 16 GB RAM (minimum 8 GB).

Comment by SoftOrbits CEO, Eugene Ustinenkov:

“AI market grows with CAGR 35.9%. We offer two solutions. For fast art generation needed our server GPUs. But for local stylization, where important control stroke and hatching, we recommend PC programs. For full work with art effects on PC user needs video card with memory volume not less 12 GB VRAM. This ensures speed and preserves confidentiality.”
