Meta Opens Muse to Personal Devices and Launches Muse Home Link

Meta makes Muse accessible for personal hardware with open-source code and compatible SDKs for ESP32 and Raspberry Pi. Meanwhile, the company is offering Muse Home Link, a device capable of executing community-developed skills for household tasks, with 5,000 units manufactured according to Nat Friedman. A waiting list is open, and shipping is announced for this month.

Muse Home Link is here, with 5,000 units and a waiting list

Meta is launching Muse Home Link, a device designed by the company to enable the AI agent to execute skills developed by the community. According to Meta, these skills can include turning on a light, controlling a television, or sending a document to a printer, depending on the chosen configuration. Nat Friedman from Meta Superintelligence Labs states that 5,000 units have been manufactured. You can sign up now for a waiting list, with shipping expected this month.

SDKs for ESP32 and Raspberry Pi, but at your own risk

Meta provides SDKs to program a standard ESP32 board or configure a Raspberry Pi, allowing Muse to connect to screens, buttons, sensors, actuators, and other hardware components. The company clarifies that these Muse gadgets are open-source DIY devices and warns that users proceed at their own risk. Muse can thus be integrated into personal hardware to serve as an embedded AI agent.

Concrete examples: E Ink, HDMI stick, and mini touchscreen

Meta offers various project ideas, such as using Muse on a color E Ink screen to display reminders, integrating it with an HDMI stick for display on a television, or installing Muse on a compact device with a touchscreen to create a DIY object reminiscent of the Muse Charm.
