Sure! This project is about designing a wearable AI pendant that can record audio, generate transcripts, evaluate sentiment, and manage information. Here are the key aspects and components of the project:
Key Features and Functionalities
Audio Recording and Processing:
Input: The pendant is activated by pressing a button ($SW1$).
Output: It uses 2 microphones ($MK1$ and $MK2$) to capture audio, which is then transcribed to text and analyzed for sentiment.
User Interaction:
Visual Feedback: An RGB LED ring ($LED1$) provides visual feedback to the user.
Connectivity: The pendant connects to a smartphone via Bluetooth, and also supports Wi-Fi for data transfer.
Power Management:
Battery: It uses a 2000 mAh LiPo battery, providing 6 hours of continuous use.
Charging: USB-C port ($J1$) is used for charging.
Power Regulation: Components like the battery connector ($BATT ; CONN$), DC-DC switching regulator ($U2$), and battery management IC ($U3$) manage power distribution and charging.
Embedded AI Capabilities:
Speech to Text: Transcription of audio to text is handled by software running on the U1.
Sentiment Analysis: Embedded AI evaluates the sentiment of the transcribed text.
Information Management: The system filters essential information and action items based on the transcribed text and sentiment analysis.
Technical Specifications
Operating Voltage: 3.3V
Operating Conditions: Temperature range from -10°C to 70°C, and humidity from 10 to 90%.
Compliance: The design adheres to RoHS, FCC, and CE standards.
Life Cycle: The pendant is designed for a 10-year life cycle with a 20,000-hour reliability expectation.
Core Components
Microcontroller:
ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8R8: This controls the AI processes, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and various sensors.
Battery Management:
BQ24075RGTT: Manages the LiPo battery charging and power distribution.
Audio Processing:
ICS-43434: Used for the microphones to capture audio.
LED Indicator:
WS2812B-B: Controls the RGB LED ring for visual feedback.
Various capacitors ($C7$, $C13$, etc.) and resistors ($R8$, $R11$, etc.) for filtering, decoupling, and other functions.
Connectivity and Interface
USB-C Connector:
1054500101: For charging and potentially wired data communication.
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi:
Handled by the ESP32-S3 module, enabling wireless communication capabilities.
This overall approach ensures that the pendant is compact, efficient, and capable of performing the desired AI functionalities while maintaining good user interaction and robust power management.
