ESP32 Audio Development Board is a audio development platform based on the ESP32. It can open a wide variety of user interaction with rich peripherals. It is portable and wearable, owns battery management on board. In addition, it is compact enough to fit almost any enclosure.The ESP32 Audio Development Board will be available in a full-featured touch screen version and a portable mini version.

Wireless Audio Touchscreen Versatility

ESP32 Audio Development Board is versatile and can be used in many situations.It can become a Wi-fi/Bluetooth capable portable speaker, internet (Wi-Fi) radio, or as a smart speaker via your platform of choice (e.g. Spotify).It can even be used in talking gadgets and wearables based on wirelessly connected audio.
