TokayEdge Lite Platform is a compact, open-source RISC-V edge inference board built for embedded AI workloads, real-time sensor fusion, and always-on vision applications at the absolute periphery of a network. Engineered from scratch in KiCad on a hardened 4-layer stackup, it pairs a GD32VF103 RISC-V microcontroller with a dedicated Himax HX6538 neural accelerator, a DVP camera interface, a MIPI CSI-2 breakout, and a full sensor peripheral bus — all DRC-clean with zero…

MaxLab AI Camera: common questions
What microcontroller does the MaxLab AI Camera use?
The MaxLab AI Camera is built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N16R8, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the MaxLab AI Camera PCB?
The MaxLab AI Camera measures 70 × 70 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the MaxLab AI Camera?
146 components, from 38 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the MaxLab AI Camera design files?
From the MAHESH-THILAK-K/ADDITIONAL-PROJECT repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the MaxLab AI Camera design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its Apache-2.0 license, which MAHESH-THILAK-K chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the MaxLab AI Camera without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
