Hailo-15 AI Vision Processor

Hailo-15 VPU Overview

Unprecedented AI performance in a camera power envelope

Hailo-15 is a family of high-performance edge AI vision processors designed for smart cameras. The Hailo-15 System-on-a-Chip (SoC) combines Hailo’s world leading AI inferencing technology with advanced computer vision engines and AI-powered ISP to deliver premium image quality and sophisticated video analytics.

AI Camera SoC

Purpose-built for on-device inference, Hailo-15 enables the efficient execution of multiple complex deep learning applications alongside AI-powered image enhancement. While model training remains in the cloud, inference is performed locally with exceptional efficiency, delivering high AI compute performance per watt and per dollar. This allows smart cameras to comply with strict size, cost, and power constraints without compromising on scale or capability.

Out-of-the-Box Camera Features

Plug & Play Camera Experience: AI ISP Low Light Denoising

Enhance dark, noisy scenes in real time at the edge. Our low-light pipeline denoises, boosts exposure, and preserves colors and details while minimizing motion blur, in extreme low light conditions <0.01 Lux. Ideal for night shots, indoor surveillance, and dim industrial environments providing crisp and usable video without increasing power consumption, latency, or bandwidth.

AI-Powered Superior Image Quality: HDR

Market leading HDR – capture details and accurate colors even at challenging light conditions in scenes with extreme bright and dark areas. Hailo’s advanced computer vision engines and AI-ISP handles merging both long and short exposures to deliver crisp and clear images achieving high dynamic range with minimal motion blur

Plug & Play Camera Experience: Free-Text Smart Search

Unlock real-time image understanding that matches live video frames to natural-language prompts. No task-specific training required. The CLIP Zero-Shot Classification app brings flexible, promotable recognition to your edge projects, ideal when speed and adaptability matter.

Plug & Play Camera Experience: Dynamic Privacy Masking (DPM)

Protect identities in real time, right on the edge. DPM automatically detects and masks sensitive regions in live video, with configurable zones and blur/blackout styles. Maintain analytics quality while meeting privacy requirements, all with ultra-low latency and no cloud dependency
