Ships in 2-3 business days due to high demand Raspberry Pi AI HAT 2 - SC2166 The Raspberry Pi AI HAT 2 is an add-on board based on the Hailo-10H AI accelerator that brings generative AI capability to Raspberry Pi 5. With 8GB of dedicated on-board RAM, the AI HAT 2 is ideal for running large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) locally, leaving the host Raspberry Pi 5 free to handle other tasks. The AI HAT 2 delivers reliable, low-latency, accelerated generative AI at the edge, making it the perfect choice for applications including offline process control, secure data analysis, facilities management, and robotics. The AI HAT 2 delivers 40 tera-operations per second (TOPS) of INT4 inferencing performance, with computer vision performance equivalent to the 26 TOPS AI HAT . A set of sample models is provided by Hailo; users can also train custom models to suit their application, such as speech to text, translation, or visual scene analysis. Like the original Raspberry Pi AI HAT , the AI HAT 2 communicates using Raspberry Pi 5’s PCI Express interface. When the host Raspberry Pi 5 is running an up-to-date Raspberry Pi OS image, it automatically detects the on‑board Hailo accelerator and makes it available for AI computing tasks. The built-in rpicam‑apps camera applications in Raspberry Pi OS natively support the AI module, automatically using the accelerator to run compatible post-processing tasks. All of the software for compatible generative AI models can be found in Hailo’s applications GitHub repo. New to building AI projects and need a leg up? We’ve got you covered with the AI HAT 2 Starter Kit. It includes the brand-new AI HAT 2, a Raspberry Pi 5 with 8GB RAM, Camera Module 3, and our sturdy HighPi Pro 5S Case - perfectly sized to fit all the essentials (plus some extra room for your ambitions)!. Features Hailo-10H AI accelerator delivering 40 TOPS (INT4) inferencingperformance Performance for computer vision models comparable to the Raspberry Pi AI HAT (26 TOPS) Runs generative AI models efficiently using 8GB on-board RAM Fully integrated into Raspberry Pi’s camera software stack Conforms to Raspberry Pi HAT specification Supplied with optional heatsink*, and with 16mm stacking header, spacers, and screws to enable fitting on Raspberry Pi 5 with Raspberry Pi Active Cooler in place
