The latest Electronics Weekly news on the eductional Raspberry Pi development board, a “low cost, credit-card sized computer that plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard keyboard and mouse”.
An edge server and PLC controller for industrial automation, field comms and IoT edge applications by Sfera Labs are based on Raspberry Pi 4 and 5. The Strato Pi Plus edge server uses a Raspberry Pi RP2354 microcontroller to handle critical, real-time functions and system supervision, independently of the main processor. There is also an independent hardware watchdog designed to ...
Adding agentic AI to the familiar chatbot-type generative AI is a major step, Toby Rogers tells Raspberry Pi users. “OpenClaw takes the same generative AI capabilities and adds the missing piece: action,” writes Rogers, “Instead of just generating text, an AI agent can use tools, run commands, interact with APIs, manage workflows, and carry out tasks on your behalf.” You ...
Raspberry Pi has been working with Sharp to develop the Raspberry Pi Smart Display Module: an adapter board for Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 that is designed to deliver high-quality, low-power display experiences for professional signage applications. The Raspberry Pi Smart Display Module enables users in the audio-visual and digital signage markets to integrate the power, flexibility and energy efficiency ...
Raspberry Pi has updated its AI HAT+ for using Generative AI on the Raspberry Pi 5. Enter the Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ 2. The previous add-on board featured the Hailo-8 (26-TOPS variant) and Hailo-8L (13-TOPS variant) neural network accelerators. But they lacked the capability to run generative AI models, which is what the AI HAT+ 2 addresses. Possible applications include ...
Giampiero Baggiani considers the decision flow for selecting the right Raspberry Pi format, from incrementally extending a single board computer to transitioning to a compute module-based custom design. Designing an embedded system with Raspberry Pi technology often begins with a deceptively simple question: “Can I just use a standard Raspberry Pi?” The answer, as with all great engineering dilemmas, is: ...
Raspberry Pi has introduced a board that squeezes a 2230 M.2 PCI Express card slot alongside the fan in a Raspberry Pi 5 case – as well as the Raspberry Pi, of course. ‘M.2 HAT+ Compact’, as it will be known, therefore allows a 30mm NVMe SSDs to be fitted inside the case, or other 30mm PCI Express devices – ...
AWS is showing how to implement Amazon EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) Hybrid Nodes using the Raspberry Pi 5. In the cloud, an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) hosts the EKS cluster. Within this VPC, an EC2 instance acts as a gateway between the cloud environment and the on-premises edge network. This EC2 instance establishes a secure site-to-site VPN tunnel, ...
ALPON X5 from Sixfab, launched on Kickstarter, is claimed to be the first industrial-grade edge AI computer based on Raspberry Pi, combining AI acceleration, cellular connectivity and industrial design in one unit. ALPON X5 edge AI computer. ALPON X5 is a fanless, LTE-connected, 25-TOPS AI inference engine. At its core is the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (CM5)l Key specs include: ...
Prophesee, the event-based neuromorphic vision system maker, has launched the GenX320 Starter Kit for Raspberry Pi 5, making its frameless sensing technology available to the Raspberry Pi developer community for the first time. Built around Prophesee’s ultra-compact, ultra-efficient GenX320 event-based vision sensor, the kit connects directly to the Raspberry Pi 5 camera connector to allow development of real-time applications that ...
Adafruit has created a dev board for the Raspberry Pi RP2350 microcontroller that can drive a DVI display, handle a keyboard and has Wi-Fi. The credit card-sized Fruit Jam has the larger (80pad) version of the 150MHz dual-core Cortex M33 MCU, alongside 16Mbyte of flash and 8Mbyte of PSRAM. “It’s like a mini computer, plug in a monitor, keyboard and ...
