The AI Camera combines a tensor processing unit and camera, to process everything onboard. ## Pricing - **Price:** $124.00 (inc GST) — $112.73 AUD, exc GST ## Availability & dispatch - In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney). - We can dispatch 82 today; more stock is typically available with a 5–11 day lead time. ## How to buy - **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE09938:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE09938:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description *Note: Some cameras may require a firmware update. If the [camera is not detected follow the instructions here](https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=378050).* AI and a camera combined? Yep, the [Raspberry Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi.html) has done it, a match made in heaven. The Raspberry Pi's AI Camera uses the Sony IMX500, a revolutionary on-chip AI processing and image-capturing powerhouse. Give your project's main processor time to breathe, all of the machine-learning computations are handled on the camera model itself. This means you can use a more affordable SBC like [the Pi Zero 2 W](https://core-electronics.com.au/CE08211)! Like a normal camera you can just stream video out, and/or with its AI Model capabilities, you can stream the metadata from the model - you get to choose what information is sent through the ribbon cable. *If you need a bit more AI computing power consider[ the Pi 5](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-5-boards-kits-and-accessories.html) and [the AI Kit](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-ai-kit.html).* ### Features - **Runs on Pi Zero 2 W** - and all other Raspberry PI boards - Oriented towards low-power projects - *specs coming soon* - Output video and/or metadata (frames and information) - The same mounting dimensions as the other [Official Pi Cameras](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/camera/official-camera-modules.html) - Uses TensorFlow Lite models - and comes pre-loaded with some examples! - 200mm Cables included (One for the Pi 5 and one for the Pi 4 and earlier) ### Specifications - Runs all provided models at 30FPS! With low latency - 12.3MP Camera - 76 Deg FOV - Manual focus - Has an onboard RP2040 for Neural network management - Frame rate: - 2×2 binned: 2028×1520 10-bit 30fps - Full resolution: 4056×3040 10-bit 10fps ### Resources - [Raspberry Pi's Getting Started](https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/accessories/ai-camera.html) ## Guides for this product - [Raspberry Pi AI Camera Quick-Start Guide](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-ai-camera-quickstart-guide/) ## Videos for this product - [Raspberry Pi AI Camera Quick-Start Guide](https://core-electronics.com.au/videos/raspberry-pi-ai-camera-quick-start-guide) ## Images - [Product image 1](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/catalog/product/c/e/ce09938-raspberry-pi-ai-camera-cable-connected.jpg)
