[SpacemiT](https://www.spacemit.com/?ref=itsfoss.com) are makers of high-performance computing chips based on the [RISC-V](https://riscv.org/?ref=itsfoss.com) architecture, with a focus on catering to applications in artificial intelligence, edge computing, and cloud infrastructure.

Recently, they quietly launched a new RISC-V small-board computer (*SBC*) that aims to deliver some decent AI performance for various edge compute applications.

Let's dive in. 😃

Powered by an **SpacemiT M1** SoC, the Muse Pi Pro packs in 8 RISC-V cores running at 1.8 GHz, with an **Imagination IMG BXE-2-32** handling graphical tasks and a **2.0 TOPS (*INT8*) AI accelerator** handling AI/ML-focused tasks.

These are paired with either 8 or 16 GB of LPDDR4X RAM running at 2400 MHz, along with onboard eMMC storage options of 64 or 128 GB. The most typical use cases for the Muse Pi Pro include image/object detection, IoT solutions for smart devices/sensors, and industrial automation.

Officially, it supports Linux-based operating systems like [Bianbu Desktop](https://bianbu.spacemit.com/en/?ref=itsfoss.com), [Ubuntu](https://itsfoss.com/ubuntu-25-04-release/), OpenKylin, [Fedora](https://itsfoss.com/fedora-42-release/), and [Deepin](https://www.deepin.org/?ref=itsfoss.com), with Bianbu being the recommended option.

As for the various **ports and interfaces**, they include:

- **Video:** 1x HDM 1.4.
- **Power:** 5/9/12V DC, 3A.
- **Audio:** 1x 3.5 mm audio jack.
- **USB:** 1x USB 2.0 Type-C (*power & data*), 4x USB 3.0 Type-A.
- **Networking:** 1x Gigabit Ethernet port, Wi-Fi 6, and Bluetooth 5.2.
- **Storage:** 1x microSD slot (*UHS-II*), M.2 M-Key 2230 port for NVMe SSDs.
- **PCle:** M.2 M-Key socket (*PCIe 2.1 x2*), Full-size mPCIe socket (*PCIe 2.1 x1*).
- **Interfaces:** 40-pin GPIO, 4-lane MIPI-CSI, 2-lane MIPI-CSI, 2-lane MIPI-DSI.

## 🛒 Getting the Muse Pi Pro

Currently, many sources point to the Muse Pi Pro being available on [AliExpress](https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808649334290.html?ref=itsfoss.com) for **\~$122**, but I couldn't find a working link, and the search results on the website showed me nothing.

If you want one, then you can keep an eye on the [official website](https://www.spacemit.com/spacemit-muse-pi-pro/?ref=itsfoss.com) for getting your hands on the Muse Pi Pro.
