The AI HAT+ is an add-on board with a built-in Hailo neural network AI accelerator for .
It provides an accessible, cost-effective, and power-efficient way to integrate high-performance AI. Explore applications including process control, security, home automation, and robotics with common frameworks such as and .
The AI HAT+ is available in 13 and 26 tera-operations per second (TOPS) variants,
built around the Hailo-8L and Hailo-8 neural network inference accelerators. It’s suited to everything from entry-level applications to more complex neural processing, with the ability to process multiple concurrent models and AI tasks.
Select the option you require before adding to cart:
- The 13 TOPS variant capably runs neural networks for applications including object detection, semantic and instance segmentation, pose estimation, and more.
- The 26 TOPS variant can handle larger networks, can run them more quickly, and can more effectively run multiple networks simultaneously.
The AI HAT+ communicates using Raspberry Pi 5’s PCIe Gen 3 interface. When the host Raspberry Pi 5 is running an up-to-date image, it automatically detects the onboard Hailo accelerator and makes the NPU available for AI computing tasks. The HAT also automatically switches to to maximise the full 26 TOPS of compute power available in the Hailo-8 accelerator.
The built-in in Raspberry Pi OS natively support the AI module, automatically using the NPU to run compatible post-processing tasks.
Raspberry Pi 5 not included.
