Arduino Nicla Voice (ABX00061)

The 22.86 x 22.86 mm Nicla Voice allows for easy implementation of always-on speech recognition on the edge, because it integrates Syntiant’s powerful NDP120 Neural Decision processor to run multiple AI algorithms, leveraging bio-inspired, advanced machine learning to automate complex tasks.

Nicla Voice comes with a comprehensive package of sensors: in addition to its microphone, it features a smart 6-axis motion sensor and a magnetometer, making it the ideal solution for predictive maintenance, gesture/voice recognition and contactless applications.

Nicla Voice offers onboard Bluetooth® Low Energy connectivity to easily interact with existing devices, and is compatible with Nicla, Portenta and MKR products.
Finally, its ultra-low power consumption makes 24/7 always-on sensor data processing possible, with the option of battery-powered standalone operation.

Small enough to fit into wearables or retrofit existing machinery, enabling AI yet requiring minimal energy: Nicla Voice is the “impossible” combination that makes voice recognition on the edge possible – and easier than ever.

Key benefits include

• Powerful processor with integrated Deep Neural Networks in a tiny form factor (22.86 x 22.86 mm)
• Integrated microphone, magnetometer and smart 6-axis IMU
• Onboard Bluetooth® Low Energy connectivity
• Add speech recognition capabilities to your projects
• Ultra-low power for 24/7 always-on sensor data processing
• Standalone when battery powered
• Compatible with Portenta and MKR products

Just say the word

Voice detection and voice recognition can change the way you interact with machines, systems and devices. With always-on sensors – courtesy of low power consumption – all you need is a wake word or trigger sound: no buttons to search for while you are driving, no interfaces to clutter your designs. And Nicla Voice not only hears everything, but understands what sounds mean: thanks to advanced neural processing, it can learn to interpret audio inputs such as passwords and commands.
