The AI Edge: How Raspberry Pi Brings Big Brains to Tiny Boards

What happens when the AI boom meets the world's favourite tiny computer? In this episode, Ken Okolo sits down with Naushir Patuck, Software Engineering Manager at Raspberry Pi, to explore the rise of artificial intelligence and how the company is making an impact in edge AI. Naush explains how the rise in capability and adoption of AI is driven by the convergence of big data, deep learning, and increased computational power, and describes how running AI processing locally, rather than shipping it off to the cloud, can save money, protect privacy, and make sure you keep full control of your data. Ken and Naush walk through Raspberry Pi's growing AI product line, from the AI Camera with its on-board accelerator, to the AI HAT+ for Raspberry Pi 5, right up to the AI HAT+ 2 with on-board memory for running generative AI models locally. Plus, hear how partnerships with companies like Ultralytics, and tight software integration through tools like libcamera, are making it easier than ever for developers to build AI-powered projects.
