The board supports LLMs like DeepSeek-R1-Distill, Llama3.2, and Qwen2.5 variants (1-1.5 billion parameters) without cloud connectivity, offering privacy and low-latency benefits. Unlike the first-generation AI HAT+ designed for vision models, this version bridges the generative AI gap while maintaining computer vision capabilities. Priced at $130/£125, it enables on-device AI processing for hobbyists and developers seeking cloud-free AI computing. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
