Tensorflow on Raspberry Pi

I'm trying to install Tensorflow on Raspberry Pi. The OS is Ubuntu Mate, python2.7 and PIP version is 7.1.2

When I run this

pip install https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/cpu/tensorflow-0.5.0-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl

it tells that

"tensorflow-0.5.0... is not a supported wheel on this platform."

Is it possible to install Tensorflow on Raspberry? And someone knows what I'm missing?

It is now possible to install Tensorflow on Raspberry Pi. There are detailed build instructions at https://github.com/samjabrahams/tensorflow-on-raspberry-pi as well as an unofficial downloadable build.

Raspberry Pi is a 32-bit architecture, and the TensorFlow program was made for a 64-bit. I am not sure how well A Raspberry Pi can handle it, but you could install a virtual machine and run the TensorFlow inside there.

Maybe the newer generations of the Rasberry Pi could handle this a bit better, but the original ones, will probably struggle to run this setup.

You could do the training on a more powerful machine and just run the learned machine on the Rasberry Pi, that might be feasible in terms of computing power.

x86 is for intel-like cpu and 64 is for 64 bits that's not Raspberry pi's hardware...
