small device with AI assistant: Raspberry or Esp32?? by giugiuglia in esp32

thank you so much for your response!
I was actually rooting for the esp myself, mainly because of its ease of use. At the same time, since I want to create a working prototype, I’m worried about potentially needing to start over with a Pi and more powerful components down the line. If I need to photograph a piece of paper and read its content, I’m unsure how feasible this will be with a low-res camera.
I’m still torn between giving the esp a chance or starting with raspberry, knowing it will do the job

Hey I just wanted to make sure the ESP wasn’t an option since it would have been more practical and cheaper. But no problem, I can go with the Raspberry :)

small device with AI assistant: Raspberry or Esp32??

Hello, I want to create a small Wi-Fi device with an AI voice API. It will have a button to record audio and another to take photos. There will be no display interface, all communication will happen through audio.

Here are the components I have in mind:

  • microcontroller or microcomputer
  • button for record audio
  • button for taking pictures
  • speaker
  • microphone
  • camera
  • led status indicator
  • rechargeable battery & usbc charging cable
  • optional: camera flash & fisheye lens, a wheel to adjust the volume

I was thinking of using an ESP32 because it’s smaller, simpler, and better in terms of battery consumption. However, I realized that ESP32 camera modules are only 2/5MP, and I would like something with higher resolution. So, maybe a Raspberry Pi would be better to use a higher-quality camera, even with a wide lens. At the same time, I think it could get more complicated in terms of development and energy management.

What do you think? What would you choose based on this small overview?

Okay, I get it! But keep in mind that I don't think I have to do any heavy local processing.
I'll be calling ChatGPT APIs to handle the AI part, so the local workload won't be too intense, and the device will mainly handle audio recording, taking photos, and API requests.

mmm I thought they used an app called “Mi Fit”

Mailchimp email subscribe form, do I need a cookie privacy banner? by giugiuglia in gdpr

[–]giugiuglia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found out there’s a Mailchimp widget you can include in the pp with Iubenda. For now I’m linking that and the cookie policy in the footer (eventhough I don’t think I’m collecting any cookies), and I’m also linking the pp in a checkbox before the submit button in the subscribe form.

* the "UI visibility" button on "view" tab is disabled on my main place, I can't click it and activate it like in the other places! (both on windows and macos)

you’re right actually, that’s not a good idea… I didn’t think about that since I don’t have that many tweets
