Artificial intelligence system with "PSOC™ 6 AI" that detects when the blender changes speed and gives an alert via voice module and LEDs. So, this device that detects when the blender is in operation and when it is off. But in general, the idea could be applied to any system that uses DC motors in the home or even in industry. For example, some applications could be detecting when a motor is no longer working or if it has an electromechanical fault. In this project, I used the accelerometer on the PSOC™ 6 AI board, and you can see the difficulty of monitoring the blender's vibrations to monitor a certain state.

I built my application with DEEPCRAFT Studio. This platform for developing AI and machine learning models specifically designed for edge devices. Also, it provides tools to collect, manage, and process data, build models, evaluate and select models, and deploy them on target hardware. 

ModusToolbox is a collection of tools that helped me develop this application and configure the PSOC 6 AI microcontroller. For example, I made the necessary changes to activate an alert with LEDs or voice recorder module.

Finally, l ran a test using the EDU DFR0699 voice recorder module and the Arduino UNO board, since there's a free library for controlling it. In this case, I've replaced the LEDs with this application. When the green LED is on, we'll hear the message "The blender is ON, " and when the red LED is on, we'll hear the message "The blender is OFF."

Challenges: I still need to experiment with the AI ​​model, as I want to monitor more speed conditions. I also plan to test damaged blender motors and demonstrate that real-time alerts are possible.
