Introduction
Specs
Quick Start
Arducam Pico4ML-BLE increases the BLE module based on Pico4ML, which has
been integrated with the RP2040 microcontroller, IMU, and display. This upgrade
makes it to be a machine learning kit with the function of Bluetooth communication.
We’ve provided some pre-built binaries that you can just drag and drop onto your
Pico4ML-BLE to make sure everything is working even before you start writing your
code.
We’ve included 3 pre-trained TensorFlow Lite Micro examples, including Person
Detection, Magic Wand, and Wake-Word Detection. You can also build, train and
deploy your models on it.

First Use
Wake-word detection
A demo where Pico4ML-BLE provides always-on wake-word detection on whether
someone is saying yes or no, using its onboard microphone and pre-trained speech
detection model.
Magic Wand (Gesture Detection)
A demo where Pico4ML-BLE casts several types of spells in one of the following
three gestures: “Wing”, “Ring” and “Slope”, using its IMU and pre-trained gesture
detection model.
Person Detection
A demo where Pico4ML-BLE predicts the probabilities of the presence of a person
with a Himax HM01B0 camera module.
Wake-word Detection
1. Click on the corresponding uf2. file “micro_speech.uf2”
2. Click on the “Download” button. This file will be downloaded to your computer.
3. Go grab your Raspberry Pi or laptop, then press and hold the BOOTSEL button on
your Pico4ML-BLE while you plug the other end of the micro USB cable into the
board.
4. Release the button after the board is plugged in. A disk volume called RPI-RP2
should pop up on your desktop.
5. Double-click to open it, and then drag and drop the UF2 file into it. The volume
will automatically unmount and the screen should light up.
6. Hold your Pico4ML-BLE closer and say “yes” or “no”. The screen will display the
corresponding word.
Person Detection
Build a Magic Wand with Edge Impulse
Build models on your own
1. Click on the corresponding uf2. file “person_detection_int8.uf2”
2. Repeat the second to fifth steps mentioned in “Wake-word Detection Using” to
light up the screen with the .uf2 file for person detection.
3. Hold your Pico4ML-BLE to capture images. The screen will display the image and
the probabilities of the presence of a person.
The increased Bluetooth help to implement wireless data collection, training, and
model update by designing a web client based on WebBLE. The collected data is
converted to a format that can be read by Edge Impulse through our conversion
script, and then the transfer learning of the model is carried out. Please refer to the
Doc page to build your custom wand project:

3. Wave your Pico4ML-BLE quickly in a W (wing), O (ring), or L (slope) shape. The
screen will display the corresponding mark.
