Updates to Agora's Convo AI Device Kit allow developers to deploy real-world connected AI devices to the market.
Agora, Inc. is a leading platform for real-time engagement and conversation AI. has announced the next generation of Convo AI device kits. The upgraded kit introduces native 4G connectivity, enhanced multimodal interaction, cameras with visual intelligence, and rapid prototyping capabilities, allowing developers to bring globally connected AI “smart hardware” devices to the marketplace more easily than ever before.
Time to the market is another major upgrade. The updated Device Kit (R1-4G) allows developers to create work demonstrations for LLM-based AI devices in an hour, create production-ready prototypes in one day, and accelerate their journey from ideas to mass production.
“We are using the Convo AI Device Kit to create an open hardware ecosystem to build truly mobile, multimodal, and production-ready conversational AI devices at record time.” Tony ZaoCEO of Agora. “This is about giving developers the flexibility to innovate and the speed at which intelligently connected AI products can be brought into everyday life.”
