what matters.

  1. 01

    Do not assume integrated Wi-Fi or Bluetooth; include a companion ESP32-C6 when wireless connectivity is required.

  2. 02

    Use Espressif's board support package to preserve display, camera, audio, and storage pin mappings.

  3. 03

    Budget external-memory bandwidth before combining high-resolution graphics, camera capture, and inference.
