Muse Gadgets - Meta's open-source kit for building your own AI gadgets
byβ’
Muse Gadgets is Meta's open-source hardware toolkit for bringing Muse into the physical world. Connect an ESP32, Raspberry Pi, or Linux device to displays, microphones, speakers, buttons, sensors, and more, then let Muse interact through the hardware you build. Make a pocket AI companion, e-ink briefing display, smart-home controller, TV interface, or something entirely your own. SDKs and firmware are open source under Apache 2.0.

Meta just open-sourced the hardware side of @Muse by Meta , and this looks like a lot of fun.
Muse Gadgets lets you take an ESP32, Raspberry Pi, or Linux device and basically build your own physical interface for Muse β add a screen, mic, speaker, buttons, sensors, whatever you want.
They've already got examples like an e-ink morning briefing display, pocket-size Muse, TV stick, and Home Assistant setup.
Meta also made its own little Home Link device for connecting Muse to things around your house.
Very curious to see what hardware people build with this.
@justin2025Β The hardware side looks really fun especially the idea of building your own physical interface with ESP32 or Raspberry Pi
An open hardware kit for ESP32 and Raspberry Pi that lets Muse talk through real displays, mics, and sensors is a genuinely fun idea. Pocket companions and e-ink briefing displays are exactly the kind of small projects people will actually finish. Nice that it starts from parts most makers already own.
the e-ink morning briefing display is the one that'd actually get built on my desk, everything else on this list I'd try once and abandon. one question on the physical side: if the mic/sensor device loses wifi mid-command, does it just sit there silently, or is there some local fallback so you at least get an error instead of talking to a brick? that's the part that always kills these DIY assistant projects for me, not the capability, just not knowing why it stopped responding.
