Mouser shipping open-source AIoT kit

This AI development kit is ideal for developers looking to prototype and transform existing factory operating systems into Edge, AI and HMI applications or other complex IoT systems.

The open-source AIoT kit is a feature-rich development tool based on the ESP32-S3 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 5 Low Energy system-on-chip (SoC) featuring AI acceleration capabilities.

The SoC also features 512KB SRAM, supported by 16MB of quad flash and 16MB of octal PSRAM. The kit also contains a 2.4-inch (320 x 240) SPI touchscreen, two digital microphones, a speaker, a USB Type-C port, and a high-density PCIe connector for hardware expansion.

The kit delivers a speech-recognition framework that provides users with an offline AI voice assistant with far-field voice interaction, continuous recognition, wake-up interruption, and the ability to recognize over 200 customizable command words.

Matter protocol is supported, enabling users to utilize it as a Matter-over-Wi-Fi/Thread end-device, a Thread border router, or a Matter gateway.

Additionally, the ESP32-S3-BOX-3 supports working with the open-source, home-automation platform and home assistant, thus providing users with a powerful, local home controller that rivals Amazon Echo and Google Home.

The outstanding AI capabilities and low power consumption of the ESP32-S3-BOX-3 make it the ideal choice for smart home automation, delivering seamless connectivity and effortless control over a wide range of devices.

Espressif’s AIoT Cloud platform, ESP RainMaker, can be used with ESP32-S3-BOX-3 to configure GPIOs and offline voice commands while also offering remote control via phone apps or third-party voice assistants.

Espressif’s ESP Insights software provides a remote diagnostics solution to monitor the functioning of the ESP32-S3-BOX-3 in the field, thus ensuring optimal performance at all times.

The ESP32-S3-BOX-3 open source AI-IoT kit from Espressif Systems is available from Mouser in the EMEA, Asia-Pacific and Americas regions.
