The Raspberry Pi AI Kit, developed in partnership with Hailo, offers seamless integration of local, high-performance, power-efficient inferencing into various applications. The AI Kit consists of the M.2 HAT+ assembled with a Hailo-8L AI accelerator module and is compatible with the Raspberry Pi 5. One of the main features of the Raspberry Pi AI Kit is its ability to achieve 13 tera-operations per second (TOPS) of inferencing performance, providing real-time AI vision applications with low latency and low power requirements. It also boasts a single-lane PCIe 3.0 connection running at 8Gbps and full integration with the Raspberry Pi image software subsystem.

Furthermore, the AI Kit is compatible with both first-party and third-party cameras and allows for efficient scheduling of the accelerator hardware, enabling simultaneous execution of multiple neural networks on a single camera or operation with two cameras concurrently. In addition, Hailo enhances the Kit with a diverse model zoo that includes pre-trained neural network models optimized for deployment on the AI Kit. The Raspberry Pi AI Kit is available for purchase at $70 through Raspberry Pi Approved Resellers.
