#### Installation

If you are using the Raspberry Pi 5 with AI Kit the installation will be much easier as you can folow this [Guide](https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/accessories/ai-kit.html#ai-kit-installation) to install the driver and software.
For Raspberry Pi 5 users with the AI Kit, installation is straightforward. Simply follow this [guide](https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/accessories/ai-kit.html#ai-kit-installation) to install the driver and software.

If you are using other board the installtion is as folows, we will start by installing the driver from the github repository Hailo provides, I have put together a handy script for linux, to clone the repository, build the driver and install it. copy or download [this](https://gist.github.com/spanner3003/4b85751d671d4ac55f926e564f1abc3e#file-install_hailo8l_driver-sh) which ever you prefer, make sue it has execution permistions with `sudo chmod +e install_hailo_driver.sh` and run it with `./install_hailo_driver.sh`.
For other boards, follow these steps for installation:

1. Install the driver from the Hailo GitHub repository. A convenient script for Linux is available to clone the repository, build the driver, and install it.
2. Copy or download [this script](https://gist.github.com/spanner3003/4b85751d671d4ac55f926e564f1abc3e#file-install_hailo8l_driver-sh).
