Codecs play an important role in audio streaming, as we have seen in one of my last blogs. I have spent some time to make the Opus Codec available as Arduino Library and I am providing some simple integration from my Arduino Audio Tools library. Opus is a codec for Read more…
Recently I discovered the Micro-RTSP-Audio Project from Thomas Pfitzinger which is based on Micro-RTSP from Kevin Hester. The Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) is an application-level network communication system that transfers real-time data from multimedia to an endpoint device by communicating directly with the server streaming the data. I tried Read more…
As we have seen in my last blog, we will need to use a codec to send and receive the audio data with some proper sampling rate: CD quality e.g. is using 44100. I started to collect some promising low-complexity codecs and converted them to Arduino libraries: sbc lc3 aptx Read more…
This blog continues the topic Low Latency Streaming of Audio Data and we have a closer look at ESP-NOW. This is a protocol developed by Espressif, which enables multiple devices to communicate with one another without using Wi-Fi. I was missing a proper implementation that is based on Arduino Streams, Read more…
Introduction Traditional streaming protocols, such as RTSP and RTMP, support low-latency streaming. These are quite complex to implement and I did not find any efficient library which would work properly on a microcontroller e.g. on an ESP32. I tried to migrate the live555 project, but so far I did not Read more…
I managed to provide a simple Interface class to use Faust in my Arduino Audio Tools. Faust (Functional Audio Stream) is a functional programming language for sound synthesis and audio processing with a strong focus on the design of synthesizers, musical instruments, audio effects, etc. Faust targets high-performance signal processing Read more…
The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is a mathematical operation that changes the domain (x-axis) of a signal from time to frequency. This is particularly useful for determining the frequency of a signal or for decomposing a signal consisting of multiple frequencies. I had this on my to-do list for quite Read more…
Today I was testing my Arduino Audio Tools Library with an ESP32-C3 Processor. This is a RISC V SingleCore CPU supporting 2.4 GHz WiFi and Bluetooth® 5 (LE). Please note that it does not support classic Bluetooth, so A2DP is not available! First I tried out my simple streams-generator-i2s sketch Read more…
I added some basic simple audio mixing functionality to my Arduino Audio Tools Library where we can mix multiple input audio streams together. Example Sketch We just need to define a Mixer and then add the different input streams that need to be mixed. Optionally we could define a weight Read more…
The goal of this blog is to give a quick introduction into using TensorFlow Lite For Microcontrollers to create Audio Output with the help of the audio-tools library. Hallo World The starting point is the good overview provided by the “Hallo World” example of Tensorflow Lite which describes how to Read more…
