  • TTS:mms_tts_eng_200 (RTF 0.069) with real-time processing support
Check the details of the benchmark.

Feature 3:Compute Power & Storage & Wireless Connectivity Expandable

It offers flexible expansion through
a) 2 × M.2 M Key: PCIe 3.0 x4 and PCIe 2.1 x1, supports SSD expansion and AI accelerators such as Hailo and Rockchip, up to 26TOPS
b) 1 x miniPCIe for wireless expansion, like 4G LTE, LoRaWAN, Wi-Fi HaLow

Feature 4:Broad Model & Framework Support

It also supports a wide range of popular AI models, From computer vision and speech to LLM-powered edge intelligence, including: YOLO, MobileNet V2, RetinaFace, CLIP, Whisper, DeepSeek-R1, Qwen2-VL,...................
Framework support includes: ONNX, PyTorch, TensorFlow, TensorFlow Lite, Caffe, Darknet,...................
Toolchain support: RKNN-Toolkit2
This broad compatibility makes it easy to migrate existing models and build integrated edge AI applications across Perception AI, Generative AI, Agent and Physical AI.

Feature 5:Get Started in Seconds with reComputer AI Lab

Deploying AI at the edge is often complicated — from environment setup and model conversion to performance optimization. To simplify this process, Seeed created reComputer AI Lab, a developer platform designed to lower the barrier to edge AI development.
It provides a complete collection of optimized AI model demos for CV, LLM, and VLM, along with interactive tutorials, deployment tools, containerized AI applications, project examples, and community resources. It is built to accelerate AI development and deployment on Rockchip, Raspberry Pi, and NVIDIA Jetson platforms.
For Rockchip users, reComputer AI Lab includes :
  1. Ready-to-Use Models
Access pre-optimized models without starting from scratch. AI Lab includes models such as YOLO11, MobileNet, CLIP, and Whisper, optimized for Rockchip platforms. With the RKLLM toolchain, it also supports edge LLM deployment.
  1. One-Command Deployment Tools
Skip complex build environments and speed up deployment with one-command tools. With Seeed-optimized RKNN-Toolkit2, models can be converted from ONNX to NPU deployment in just minutes, making AI application deployment faster and easier.
  1. Comprehensive Tutorials, Projects, and Community
From basic NPU benchmarking to real-world applications such as YOLO11-based industrial detection, AI Lab provides step-by-step guides, practical project examples, and community support to help developers build faster.

Feature 6: Pre-installed Armbian and Multi-OS

The device comes with Armbian pre-installed for a fast out-of-the-box experience.
With the help of Armbian, we are able to provide long-term maintained system images, security updates, encrypted OS options, and OTA upgrade support for production-ready deployment.
 
It also supports multiple operating systems through the Rockchip ecosystem, giving developers more flexibility across different projects, Ubuntu, Android, Debian.

Feature 7:Simultaneous 4-Display Output with 8K Video Capability

The reComputer RK35xx Series supports simultaneous 4-display output, giving developers more flexibility for digital signage, control centers, smart retail, and multimedia systems.
Supported output interfaces include:
  • HDMI
  • MIPI DSI
  • Type-C (DP Alt Mode)
It also offers strong multimedia capabilities:
  • Up to 8K@30fps video encoding with H.265 / H.264
  • Up to 8K@60fps video decoding with H.265 / H.264 / AV1 / AVS2
This makes it ideal for high-resolution AI vision and multimedia applications.
