Infineon CY8CKIT-062S2-AI Dev Kit Features Diverse Onboard Sensors with Ready to Use AI Models
Infineon CY8CKIT-062S2-AI Dev Kit is a PSoC 62S2 MCU-powered development board built to create and test edge AI applications. The unique aspect of this board is that it features a plethora of sensors including a microphone, radar, IMU, magnetometer, and an air pressure sensor which can be configured to get environmental data, and with the help of a prebuilt AI model that data can be processed very easily.
In terms of connectivity the board has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and complementing that is an additional expansion header that can be used to connect extra sensors and modules. This feature with an AI-compatible processor makes this device useful for applications like industrial monitoring, wearables, healthcare devices, robotics, and more.
Previously we have written about similar Edge AI dev boards like Radxa’s AICore SG2300x, the Avnet QCS6490, Qualcomm RB3 Gen 2, and much more feel free to check those out if you are looking for Edge AI SBCs.
The most unique aspect of this board is its software support as it comes with ready-to-use machine learning models which makes it easy to develop Edge AI applications around it, also it has support for ModusToolbox, Infineon’s software tool for embedded development and we have seen it used in the PSoC 64 IoT Security Workshop Development Kit. The board also supports the Imagimob Studio platform with which you can create machine-learning models and use them on small devices.
