WisBlock Audio is built on a WisBlock Base, a platform carrier that a WisBlock Audio Core processing board and multiple WisBlock modules plug into. WisBlock Base provides the power supply, battery and solar panel supplies, and the charging block. In addition, it has connectors for programming and debugging.
What makes WisBlock Audio different?
Compact plug-and-play builds
Choice of different processing cores
Choice of different microphones
Speaker Amplifiers
DSP-based audio processing
WisCore Voice Recognition
Verified audio enclosures built for real-world industrial applications
Build an IoT device that listens to the world. These kits include all the hardware you need to start writing your application code. Here are some sample applications that these kits that work well for:
Monitoring for noise levels
Listening for specific noises and audio frequencies
Monitoring the natural environment with bioacoustics
Bioacoustics to monitoring the natural environment
Factory or industrial monitoring for safety and failure detection
WisBlock Audio Kits - Speaker
Build an IoT device that makes noise. This kit includes all the hardware you need to start writing your application code. Here are some sample applications that this kit that works well for:
Audio Notifications
Remote Notifications
Wildlife Control
WisBlock Audio Kits - Microphone & Speaker
Build an IoT device that can both listen and play audio back. This kit includes all the hardware you need to start writing your application code. Here are some sample applications that this kit works well for:
Voice recognition using Edge Impulse or Cyberon voice processing
Listening and responding with audio responses
WisBlock Audio Kits - Voice Recognition
Build an offline voice recognition smart device. These kits will get you going quickly. Both kits are powered by the RAK18080 DSP processing board. You can also build a Voice Recognition device using the Microphone or Microphone and Speaker Kits, but all the processing will be done on the WisCore rather than a dedicated voice processing DSP.
Build your own kit
If the above kits don’t meet your needs, you can build your own custom WisBlock Audio IoT system:

These are the data-processing centers of the WisBlock Audio System. Audio Core modules have built-in wireless communication options including Semtech LoRaWAN® technology, Wi-Fi, and BLE. Other options such as Cellular LTE-M/NB-IoT, UWB, and NFC can also be added via additional external modules. Some WisBlock Audio Cores offer a version with a Voice Processing license (Cyberon Software).
Individual Audio Modules - Audio Baseboards
WisBlock is built on a WisBlock Baseboard, a platform carrier that a WisBlock Core processing board and multiple WisBlock modules plug into. WisBlock Base provides the power supply, battery and solar panel supplies, and the charging block. In addition, it has connectors for programming and debugging.
Individual Audio Modules - Microphone
A variety of microphone modules are available to match your requirements. RAK1803x modules are all digital PDM microphone modules that work with any of the WisBlock Audio Cores and Interposer Boards. The RAK1804x are Analog Microphone modules, either analog to digital converters or actual analog microphones.
Individual Audio Modules - Amplifier
If you need to add a speaker to your WisBlock system, two amplifier modules are available, one stereo and one analog. Speakers for your amplifier can be found with the WisBlock Audio accessories.
Individual Audio Modules - Interposer
Interposer modules allow you to use multiple WisBlock Audio boards on a single WisBlock IO slot. They may also provide a slot for an SD Card which can be used for logging or configuration information.
Individual Audio Modules - Audio Enclosures
Audio Enclosures are audio-specific enclosures with options for mounting your microphone and/or speaker into the enclosure.
Individual Audio Modules - Audio Accessories
Accessories are available for WisBlock Audio if you aren’t using one of the complete WisBlock Audio Kits.
