Raspberry Pi built an AI camera with Sony
AI enthusiasts who like the Raspberry Pi range of products can rejoice, as the company is now announcing its new Raspberry Pi . This product is the result of the company’s collaboration with (SSS), which began in 2023. The AI Camera is compatible with all of Raspberry Pi’s single-board computers.
The approximately 12.3-megapixel AI Camera is intended for vision-based AI projects, and it’s based on SSS’ IMX500 image sensor. The integrated RP2040 microcontroller manages the neural network firmware, allowing the camera to perform onboard AI image processing and freeing up the Raspberry Pi for other processes. Thus, users who want to integrate AI into their Raspberry Pi projects are no longer limited to the Raspberry Pi AI Kit.
The AI Camera isn’t a total replacement for Raspberry Pi’s , which is still available. For those interested in the new AI Camera, it’s available right now from Raspberry Pi’s approved resellers for $70.
