Volos Projects recently showcased an easy-to-reproduce, inexpensive DIY ESP32-S3 Internet radio based on a Waveshare ESP32-S3-LCD-1.54 development board and an Arduino sketch with a Winamp-styled user interface. As its name implies, the hardware is based on the ESP32-S3 WiFi and Bluetooth SoC, connected to a 1.54-inch 240×240 color display and a speaker that delivers better-than-expected audio quality, according to Volos Projects. Waveshare ESP32-S3-LCD-1.54 specifications: SoC – Espressif ESP32-S3R8 CPU – Dual-core Tensilica LX7 microcontroller up to 240 MHz with vector instructions for AI acceleration Memory – 512KB SRAM, 8MB PSRAM Wireless – WiFi 4 and Bluetooth 5.0 LE + Mesh connectivity Storage 16MB NOR flash MicroSD card slot Display 1.54-inch IPS display with 240×240 resolution, 262K colors 4-wire SPI ST7789 driver Optional CST816 capacitive touch controller (not used by the DIY Radio project) Audio Speaker 2x microphones NS4150B audio amplifier ES8311 low-power audio codec ES7210 AEC (acoustic echo cancellation) chip USB […]

When it comes to deploying local LLMs, many people may think that spending more money will deliver more performance, but it’s far from reality.  That’s why Sipeed created the “AI Agent Local LLM Inference Device Deployment Guide” hosted on the llmdev.guide website. The website lists common hardware with price, performance (tokens/s), power consumption, and more for various LLMs. If we take Qwen3.5 9B as an example, we can see that $4K+ hardware like NVIDIA DGX Spark or Apple Mac Studio  M3 delivers about the same TPS as a machine equipped with a $260 Intel Arc B580 12GB GPU. If money is no object and you’d like the best performance, the NVIDIA GTX 5090 32GB makes the most sense. I reckon the price comparison is imperfect because some data points reflect the price of a complete system, while others only list the price of a graphics card. However, for Qwen 122B-A10B, […]
