The Banana Pi community, dedicated to open source hardware, is an innovative project led by Guangdong Bipai Technology and supported by Taiwan Hon Hai Technology (Foxconn). The project aims to design and develop a series of open source hardware development boards under the Banana Pi brand, providing all the elements needed to encourage global developer participation.

Banana Pi development boards offer a complete architecture and core system. All development documents, software and hardware elements (including electronic schematics) are open, enabling every developer worldwide to contribute to the project. This transparency and open access are at the heart of the Banana Pi philosophy, aimed at enriching and extending the open source ecosystem.
