The AI boom continues as Raspberry Pi enters the market with a new, economical module for machine learning designed for their renowned single-board computer.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Raspberry Pi AI Kit, priced at $70, features the company’s self-designed M.2 Hat board paired with a power-efficient AI module from Hailo<\/a>, a firm known for its low-power AI chips meant for devices instead of data centers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Part of the package is a scaled-down version of the Hailo-8 chip, the Hailo-8L AI accelerator<\/a>. Raspberry Pi states that it can achieve “13 tera-operations per second (TOPS),” which is modest compared to the 40-50 TOPS provided by NPUs from Intel, Qualcomm, and AMD in their latest offerings.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

However, unlike those more expensive NPUs, this device comes with a $70 price tag, is compatible with the new Raspberry Pi 5s, and consumes relatively less power, officially denoted as “suppage\u00ae” within the industry jargon for AI module energy consumption.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cInstalled on a Raspberry Pi 5, the AI Kit allows you to rapidly build complex AI vision applications, running in real time, with low latency and low power requirements,\u201d<\/em> Raspberry Pi\u2019s Naush Patuck says of the new product.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cState-of-the-art neural networks for object detection, semantic and instance segmentation, pose estimation, and facial landmarking (to name just a few) run entirely on the Hailo-8L co-processor, leaving the Raspberry Pi 5 CPU free to perform other tasks.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Some AI-powered demos involving the use of the official Raspberry Pi camera accessories have been shared. As the Hailo-8L is a neural network inference<\/em> accelerator it\u2019s designed to use pre-trained models to perform tasks making it especially good for visual-based input.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

That said, the application and versatility of this low-cost combo will undoubtedly lead to more experimentation and applications, and may help bolster the creation of highly-optimised LLMs that can be used locally and lessen the cloud-based processing.<\/p>\n

Hailo has set up a new community forum<\/a> so Raspberry Pi enthusiasts, engineers, and developers can discuss, share, and ideate.<\/p>\n

Is any of this relevant to Ubuntu? <\/p>\n

Ish.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The AI Kit currently mandates the utilization of Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm. This is understandable as it is a fresh arrival on the market and other versions are yet to accommodate support for it.<\/p>\n

However, it would be beneficial to witness involvement from other Linux distributions that are already making strides in AI and ML, and which have a reliable track record of Raspberry Pi support. *fourth wall wink*<\/em><\/p>\n

If you are considering purchasing the Raspberry Pi AI Kit, it is being sold through certified Pi resellers at a ballpark figure of $70\/\u00a368 starting from today.
