Raspberry Pi teams up with Hailo to boost AI capabilities of its new model 5 with an extension kit.
Here’s an elaboration on the Raspberry Pi 5 AI Kit:
What it is:
- An extension kit for the Raspberry Pi 5 that adds AI capabilities.
- Costs $70 and includes a neural network accelerator for local AI processing.
How it works:
- Connects to the Raspberry Pi 5 via the M.2 slot on the HAT+ extension card.
- Uses the Hailo-8L chip, an AI accelerator designed for edge devices.
- Delivers 13 TOPS (tera-operations per second) of inferencing performance.
Benefits:
- Cost-effective: Compared to high-powered AI solutions.
- Power-efficient: Works with the Raspberry Pi’s existing power supply.
- Easy to use: Latest Raspberry Pi OS automatically detects the module.
- Opens up new possibilities: Enables AI applications on Raspberry Pi devices like:
- Facial recognition
- Object detection
- Image and video analysis
- Machine learning projects
Limitations:
- Performance: Not as powerful as high-end AI hardware like Nvidia GPUs.
Overall:
The Raspberry Pi 5 AI Kit is a significant development for the popular hobbyist computer. It makes AI development more accessible and affordable, allowing users to experiment with AI applications directly on their Raspberry Pi devices. This could lead to a surge of innovative projects in areas like robotics, smart home automation, and computer vision.
