Description

Want to add AI functionalities to your Micro:bit, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi projects?

KOI got you covered. It simply adds an AI brain to your projects.

KOI is an Artificial Intelligence Module featuring the powerful Kendryte K210 SoC with 16MB of flash storage. However, if you want to add more storage for your demanding AI projects, the built-in SD Card slot allows you to do so, with support up to 16GB.

KOI takes a block-based programming approach which is simple and easy to learn, and it makes AI accessible to everyone!

This is powerful enough to do AI processing and model training on the module itself and supports importing pre-trained models as well. Furthermore, it features an adjustable camera, a microphone, a speaker, and an IPS display which makes it a complete package to get started with AI!

With the integrated Wi-Fi onboard, your device is able to connect to the cloud to upload and process data, which is an essential part of machine learning.

It can also realize functions such as vision recognition, speech recognition, speech synthesis, and much more. Its multiple functions enhance the learning of AI more systematical and comprehensive.

If you want to connect this module with your Lego projects, it has 4 Lego mounting holes which will help you to connect to your Lego projects.
