The hardware
Raspberry Pi announced the AI HAT+ 2 on 15 January 2026. The board combines a Hailo-10H accelerator with 8GB of dedicated memory and a stated 40-TOPS INT4 rating.
The use case
The company describes support for local generative-AI and vision-language workloads. Hardware compatibility, model support and the intended task matter more than comparing a TOPS number in isolation.
