Raspberry Pi AI Kit

The Raspberry Pi AI Kit combines the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ with a Hailo AI acceleration module to provide an accessible, cost-effective, and energy-efficient solution for integrating high-performance AI into the Raspberry Pi 5. This kit is ideal for applications such as process control, security, home automation, and robotics.

The core of the kit is a 13 tera-operations per second (TOPS) neural network inference accelerator powered by the Hailo-8L chip. The module uses the M.2 2242 form factor and is pre-installed in the M.2 HAT+, connecting via an M key edge connector. The M.2 HAT+ bridges the AI module’s M.2 interface with the Raspberry Pi 5’s PCIe 2.0 interface, ensuring seamless communication.

The kit is designed to work seamlessly with an up-to-date Raspberry Pi OS image. When connected, the Raspberry Pi 5 automatically detects the Hailo module and makes its Neural Processing Unit (NPU) available for AI computing tasks.
