Every day we can find a large number of projects that we can create with a Raspberry Piand it is an extremely versatile system to be able to do practically whatever we want that requires a computer, as we can well imagine. And one of the reasons why we can choose to create anything with one of these SBCs is the fact of the large number of updates and new features they receive at the hardware level, since their developers know the needs of the users, which is why for which they are going to launch a module improved for functions of AI.
One of the great advantages offered by a Raspberry Pi It is the ability it has to expand its characteristics, and we can incorporate a large number of modules that allow us to add a series of capabilities that provide a really great improvement. In this case, the company that develops these miniature computers has launched a series of additional kits that allow performance to be increased, we saw the presentation of its new SSDs and other types of improvements in terms of storage, but now they are also going to release a second version of the module Raspberry Pi AI HAT.

The need to have high-performance hardware to be able to use all the AI functions offered by the various software that we can find on the market does not only apply to traditional computers, but there are many others that can also benefit from this. And it is clear that if we talk about creating projects that use artificial intelligence to do something that attracts enough attention so that other people want to replicate it, we cannot avoid talking about the Raspberry Pi, which offers us a large number of different ways to use them. .
Some time ago, the company responsible for the creation of these devices presented the module Raspberry Pi AI HATan expansion for these SBCs that allowed adding higher power focused mainly on artificial intelligence, since it offers 13 additional TOPS. This now seems to fall short, and there are a large number of applications that need much more power, since as we well know, AI is evolving extremely quickly, but at the same time so are its operating requirements.
That is why the company has announced that they will launch an improved version of this module that will offer practically double the power, and the new Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ It will hit the market with a total of 26 TOPS, staying very close to what some next-generation processors focused on artificial intelligence offer. One of the advantages offered by this new module is that unlike the AI Kit, which uses an M.2 connector, the Hailo accelerator chip is integrated directly into the main board, which simplifies configuration and offers improved thermal dissipation.
