Hailo Hailo-8R Mini PCIe Starter Kit
Hailo Hailo-8R Mini PCIe Starter Kit comprises a single PCI Express Mini (mPCIe) module, a thermal management kit (including metal cubes, thermal pads, and thermal adhesive tape), a screw, and a screwdriver. The Hailo-8R mPCIe artificial intelligence (AI) acceleration module processes deep learning inferencing in real time and with low power consumption. The module features the Hailo-8R AI processor and delivers up to 13 tera-operations per second (TOPS) with industry-leading power efficiency.
Hailo-8R's unique, powerful, and scalable, structure-driven dataflow architecture leverages the core properties of neural networks. The architecture enables edge devices to run deep learning applications at full scale more efficiently, effectively, and substantially than traditional solutions, while significantly lowering costs. This mPCIe module connects to various host processors via PCIe.
