London-listed budget computer maker Raspberry Pi is expanding its artificial intelligence offering with the launch of a new AI camera.
The AI camera, launched on Monday, can be used to perform image processing, making it useful for AI solutions requiring visual data.
The Cambridge-based hardware firm released an AI kit in June. Until now it has required a separate camera module to capture visual data.
The camera, which is compatible with the company’s range of single board computers, is based on the IMX500 image sensor with an integrated AI accelerator.
“AI-based image processing is becoming an attractive tool for developers around the world,” said Eben Upton, CEO of Raspberry Pi.
“Together with our longstanding image sensor partner Sony Semiconductor Solutions, we have developed the Raspberry Pi AI Camera, incorporating Sony’s image sensor expertise. We look forward to seeing what our community members are able to achieve using the power of the Raspberry Pi AI Camera.”
Founded in 2012, Raspberry Pi listed publicly on the London Stock Exchange in June to the relief of the UK markets, eager for more tech IPOs.
Raspberry Pi published its first results as a listed business this month, reporting a revenue jump of 61%, reaching $144m for the first six months of the year. Pre-tax profits reached $10.8m.
Upton, however, warned customer activity had been tapering off since the public launch.
