What is Pinea Pi
Pinea Pi is the first AI-native edge intelligent development board launched by ModelBest. Built on NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, it has built-in multimodal components such as a camera and microphone. Pinea Pi supports natural language direct-drive development and comes with the out-of-the-box MiniCPM multimodal large model, enabling full-link offline operation. It allows intelligent hardware development without code, and is suitable for scenarios such as personal assistants, embodied intelligence, and programming education. It is expected to be launched in mid-2026.
Main features of Pinea Pi
-
Agent native: Supports developers in directly driving hardware development through natural language, turning intent directly into execution actions, enabling intelligent interaction without writing code, and greatly lowering the technical threshold for edge intelligent development.
-
Multimodal native: Built in with ModelBest's self-developed MiniCPM-V multimodal large model and MiniCPM-o omni-modal large model, providing out-of-the-box perception capabilities such as vision, hearing, and language, so that hardware is born with a complete interaction experience of "seeing, hearing, and speaking."
-
Edge native: Supports full-link offline operation of large models, with data fully retained on the local edge, ensuring user privacy and security are controllable, providing a stable and smooth user experience, and requiring no continuous Token fees for model calls.

Application scenarios of Pinea Pi
- Offline multimodal personal knowledge assistant: Builds a privatized intelligent assistant based on a local large model, supporting document understanding, voice interaction, and image recognition, with data not leaving the device to ensure privacy and security.
- Embodied intelligence development: Provides an edge "brain" for hardware such as robots and smart cars, enabling natural language control, environmental perception, and autonomous decision-making, and lowering the threshold for robot development.
- AI programming education teaching tool: As a teaching platform, it helps students understand the principles of multimodal AI, and quickly get started with intelligent hardware development through natural language interaction and visual programming.
- Smart home hub: Controls smart devices offline, supports interaction methods such as voice commands and visual recognition, and creates a localized smart life system that does not require an internet connection.
- Edge computing node: Uses Jetson AGX Orin computing power to complete AI inference locally, suitable for scenarios with low latency and high privacy requirements such as industrial quality inspection and security monitoring.
