Edgi-Talk is an all-in-one, open-source AI handheld development board launched by RT-Thread in collaboration with Infineon. Designed for edge computing, it allows developers to run on-device artificial intelligence and voice-interactive applications without relying entirely on the cloud.
Key Features and Specifications
- Hardware: Powered by the Infineon PSoC Edge E84 MCU, which includes a 400 MHz Arm Cortex-M55, a 200 MHz Cortex-M33, an Ethos-U55 micro NPU, and an ultra-low-power NNLite neural network accelerator.
- Software: Powered by the RT-Thread RTOS and bundled out-of-the-box with the XiaoZhi AI large language model for natural language processing and voice interaction.
- Connectivity & Power: Features Wi-Fi, BLE, and a 500 mAh battery for portability.
- Use Cases: Ideal for building smart home controllers, sensor hubs, and responsive, offline voice assistant prototypes.

Rich IO that matters to your AI project
Edgi-Talk is essentially a sandbox for edge computing: it lets developers test multi-sensor fusion, real-time UI rendering, and connectivity on a single board. For someone like you, Cheah, with interests in IIoT, SCADA HMI, and edge AI deployment, this board is a practical way to explore RT-Thread’s ecosystem and prototype industrial monitoring dashboards or smart assistants.
