Hey fellow founders,
I am a Software engineer and founder looking to join the Hardware world. I’d like to start prototyping an AI wearable, any advice on that topic ?
Does anyone in the community already worked with hardware and would be able to point me to a HDK with Bluetooth, a camera, a mic and a couple of sensors that I could use to start prototyping and work on the Software side ?
I’m a big ESP32 fan. They’re easy to develop on and very cheap to get into production with, if your project goes in that direction. For these reasons, they’re absolutely everywhere in the connected devices world. The new ones are lower power, and even have some machine learning/edge compute capabilities. But the hardware is going to depend on the systems engineering and where you’re planning on running the AI functions.
The easiest start you’ll have is to just find an open source project with similar capability and just piggyback on their system architecture
