Many assume that you need a giant computer to experiment with AI models. In reality, there are already a bunch of single-board computers and compact dev boards that let you run tiny models. Take the ESpico AI Dev Board: it is powered by ESP32-P4 + ESP32-C6 and supports WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5 connections. It can be expanded through various interfaces. You even get a 40-pin expansion header that works with Raspberry Pi Pico HATs.
This board has a 360 MHz dual-core processor and AI acceleration, so it can be used for face recognition, voice control, and other applications. The ESpico is compatible with Raspberry Pi CSI cameras. You can also connect it to 7 and 10.1 inch displays. A variety of programming languages are supported, including C++ and Python. So how does this compare against the RPi Pico? It has a faster processor, more SRAM and memory and AI acceleration. You can find this project on Kickstarter.
