树莓派由剑桥大学Eben Upton创办的基金会开发,已成为历史上最畅销的英国计算机1。Model B于2012年2月29日以35美元的价格首次发售,首日订单量之大导致分销商服务器瘫痪1。截至2025年3月,树莓派的累计销量已达68万台,超越ZX Spectrum成为英国最畅销的计算机产品1。
树莓派在芯片设计领域也取得进展,从2021年起开始自主研发芯片,相继推出RP2040(2021年)、RP1(2023年)和RP2350(2024年)1。2024年6月11日,树莓派控股公司在伦敦证券交易所上市,基金会保持了多数股权1。最新产品线转向本地AI应用,包括售价70美元的AI Kit、AI Camera及运算能力达26 TOPS的AI HAT+1。2026年树莓派因内存价格危机实现首次大幅涨价,打破了自2012年以来持续降价的传统1。
The Raspberry Pi Foundation, established by Cambridge University's Eben Upton, has chronicled fifty milestone events spanning two decades of the Raspberry Pi's evolution from its 2006 inception through 2026 1. The Model B launched on February 29, 2012, at a price of $35, generating such immediate demand that it crashed distributors' servers on its first day 1. Over the subsequent thirteen years, the platform achieved remarkable market penetration, accumulating 6.8 million units sold by March 2025 and surpassing the ZX Spectrum to become the best-selling British computer in history 1.
The company's trajectory accelerated significantly in recent years with strategic shifts toward hardware independence and artificial intelligence. Beginning in 2021, Raspberry Pi commenced in-house chip design, releasing the RP2040 in 2021, followed by the RP1 in 2023 and the RP2350 in 2024 1. The parent holding company achieved a major milestone on June 11, 2024, when it listed on the London Stock Exchange, with the Foundation retaining majority ownership 1. The latest product portfolio reflects a pronounced pivot toward edge AI applications, featuring offerings such as the AI Kit priced at $70, an AI Camera, and the AI HAT+ accelerator capable of 26 TOPS 1. In 2026, Raspberry Pi departed from its fourteen-year trajectory of consistent price reductions, implementing its first substantial price increase driven by global memory supply constraints 1.
