Give your next idea
a physical input.

Practical guides for building sensor demos with AI. Start in simulation. Learn what to buy, what to code and what to test.

Start here / no hardware required

A working dashboard.
Then your own idea.

Follow the demo walkthrough, send an example event and ask your coding assistant to make it yours.

What is HardwareBlocks? ↗

Assembled ESP32 sensor kits, a private web app and an API for prototyping physical products with AI.

Build guide

How to build an AI hardware demo ↗

Build a real sensor dashboard with simulated data, then use AI and the HardwareBlocks API to adapt it to your project.

Climate project

Build a room temperature and humidity monitor ↗

Prototype a room climate dashboard with SHT31 readings, simulation events and a private HardwareBlocks workspace.

Motion project

Build a bike movement alert prototype ↗

Use an IMU, Wi-Fi events and your own notification backend to prototype a bike movement alert.

Distance project

Build a distance and object-presence demo ↗

Prototype a short-range object-presence or garage-space experiment with the HardwareBlocks Distance Kit.

Camera project

Build an AI camera and fridge demo ↗

Prototype private snapshots and an editable AI-assisted shopping list with HardwareBlocks Camera Kit.

Choose your approach

Kit or development board? ↗

Compare HardwareBlocks, ESP32, Seeed XIAO, Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
