Raspberry Pi AI Kit

Published June 2024

Raspberry Pi Ltd
Overview

The Raspberry Pi AI Kit bundles the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ with a Hailo AI acceleration
module for use with Raspberry Pi 5. 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. Contains:

• a Hailo AI module containing a Neural Processing Unit (NPU)


• a Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+, to connect the AI module to your Raspberry Pi 5
• a thermal pad pre-fitted between the module and the M.2 HAT+
• a mounting hardware kit
• a 16mm stacking GPIO header

The AI module is a 13 tera-operations per second (TOPS) neural network inference


accelerator built around the Hailo-8L chip. The module uses the M.2 2242 form factor,
and comes pre-installed in the M.2 HAT+, to which it connects through an M key edge
connector. The M.2 HAT+ communicates between the AI module’s M.2 interface and the
Raspberry Pi 5’s PCIe 2.0 interface.

When the host Raspberry Pi 5 is running an up-to-date Raspberry Pi OS image,


it automatically detects the Hailo module and makes the NPU available for AI computing
tasks. The built-in rpicam-apps camera applications in Raspberry Pi OS natively support
the AI module, automatically using the NPU to run compatible post-processing tasks.

WARNINGS
• The Hailo AI module shall only be connected to a Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ via the M.2 key interface.
• The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ shall only be connected to a Raspberry Pi via the PCIe interface and GPIO header.
• This product should be operated in a well-ventilated environment, and if used inside a case, the case should not be
covered.
• Whilst in use, this product should be firmly secured, and should not be contacted by conductive items.
• The connection of incompatible devices to the Raspberry Pi AI Kit may affect compliance, result in damage to the unit,
and invalidate the warranty.
• All peripherals used with this product should comply with relevant standards for the country of use and be marked
accordingly to ensure that safety and performance requirements are met.
• The cables and connectors of all peripherals used with this product must have adequate insulation so that relevant
safety requirements are met.
• Operation of this device requires adult supervision.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid malfunction or damage to this product, please observe the following:
• Do not expose to water or moisture, or place on a conductive surface whilst in operation.
• Do not expose to heat from any source; Raspberry Pi computers and the Raspberry Pi AI Kit are designed for reliable
operation at normal ambient temperatures.
• Take care whilst handling to avoid mechanical or electrical damage to the printed circuit board and connectors.
• Whilst it is powered, avoid handling the printed circuit board, or only handle it by the corners to minimise the risk of
electrostatic discharge damage.
