Equipped with Hailo-8 AI Accelerator to Step Up Your Edge Product Performance

The Hailo-8 M.2 module is an AI accelerator module for AI applications, based on the 26 tera-operations per second (TOPS) Hailo-8 AI processor with high power efficiency. The M.2 AI accelerator features a full PCIe Gen-3.0 4-lane interface, delivering unprecedented AI performance for edge devices.

The M.2 module can be plugged into an existing edge device with M.2 socket to provide low-power deep neural network inferencing. Leveraging Hailo's comprehensive Dataflow Compiler and its support for standard AI frameworks, customers can easily port their Neural Network models to the Hailo-8 and introduce high-performance AI products to the market quickly.
