Raspberry Pi AI Kit with M.2 HAT and Hailo AI Module

Overview

The Raspberry Pi AI Kit empowers you to leverage the power of artificial intelligence for your next project. This all-in-one solution combines a Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ with a high-performance Hailo AI acceleration module, providing exceptional AI capabilities at an accessible price point. This makes the Raspberry Pi AI Kit ideal for hobbyists, educators, and developers looking to explore the exciting world of AI without breaking the bank.

The AI module is built around the advanced Hailo-8L chip, it delivers an impressive 13 tera-operations per second (TOPS) for rapid neural network inference. It seamlessly fits into the Raspberry Pi 5 ecosystem, utilizing the M.2 2242 form factor and connecting to the M.2 HAT+ via an M key edge connector.

With the updated Raspberry Pi OS, raspberry pi automatically detects the Hailo module upon startup, making the Neural Processing Unit (NPU) readily available for AI computations. The integrated rpicam-apps camera applications in the Raspberry Pi OS intelligently leverage the NPU to optimize image processing tasks, delivering enhanced performance and efficiency.
