Getting Started

UNIHIKER K10

UNIHIKER K10 is an ESP32 based development board designed for rapid experience and learning of artificial intelligence. The board integrates a 2.8-inch LCD color screen, WiFi, Bluetooth, camera, microphone, speaker, RGB indicator, multiple sensors and a rich set of expansion interfaces. With the highly integrated on-board resources, sensor control, IoT applications, and AI projects such as face recognition, voice recognition, and speech synthesis can be easily realized without the need to connect additional devices during the programming process.

Quick Start

Use a USB cable to connect the USB-C port of the UNIHIKER K10 to a computer USB port or 5V adapter, and wait for the K10's screen to display a logo, which means that K10 is ready to go. After successful boot-up, K10 runs the factory built-in program, you can quickly experience the most of the K10 features. (Note: K10 in the document is the abbreviation of K10 of the UNIHIKER K10)

Working offline Power Supply

After burning a programme for the K10 in Mind+ or other IDE, the programme will be stored in the board's Flash and will not be lost during a power failure, so when the K10 is re-powered it will run the programme that was uploaded last time.

  • Supports power supply via Type-C port, 5V.
  • Supports power supply via on-board PH2.0 battery port
  • Supports power supply via edge connector

TF card

We recommend using genuine SanDisk cards sold by DF Mall: 16GB Class 10 or 32GB Class 10. Using an unknown brand of memory card may cause problems such as card read/write failure and program crash. If you use a 32GB or higher memory card, you need to format the card into FAT32 format.
