Meta opens Muse Gadgets for custom AI devices

Meta is releasing firmware and a Linux SDK so developers can build Muse-connected hardware on common boards and try out its own Home Link bridge.

Meta has released Muse Gadgets, an open-source initiative that lets developers and hardware hackers embed its Muse AI agent into custom devices. The company is publishing firmware and a Linux SDK that work with off-the-shelf boards like ESP32 and Raspberry Pi, enabling integrations with displays, buttons, sensors, actuators and more. Example projects include putting Muse on a color E Ink display, an HDMI stick for TVs, or small touchscreen devices, and Meta has set up a Discord channel to support the community. To showcase the concept, Meta built a USB‑C Muse Home Link bridge that connects Muse to a home network and smart devices, manufactured 5,000 units, and is giving them away to Muse subscribers ahead of shipments this month. The effort complements Meta’s recent Muse for Small Business launch and its new Meta Enterprise Platform unit, signaling a broader push to turn Muse into an ecosystem spanning consumer hardware and business integrations like Shopify, Dropbox and Slack.
