Hardware Requirements for Voice Features

Voice translation uses local AI models for speech recognition and translation, all running on your machine:

  • Speech recognition model: Selecting "Fast (0.6B)" requires about 2.5 GB of available memory; "High-Precision (1.7B)" requires about 3 GB of available memory.
  • Local translation model (Hy-MT2): The model is additionally loaded when local translation is enabled, so please reserve enough available memory.
  • Speech recognition runs on CPU inference; the number of inference cores can be adjusted in settings (default 4). More cores improve speed but consume more computing resources.

Software Requirements

Required Software

  • Steam: For purchasing and launching the software
  • SteamVR: VR runtime environment

Not Supported

  • Windows 7/8 operating systems

Network Requirements

Translation functionality requires an Internet connection. A stable broadband network is recommended for the best experience.
