Smith clarified that while he recognizes the frustration coming from all angles, all he can control is himself and his team's outcome. Smith said eight consecutive losses, which included a 20-17 defeat at the expense of the Iowa Hawkeyes this past Saturday, is not what he had envisioned entering his second season in East Lansing. The last thing Smith said he'll do, though, is fold under scrutiny. "What, you just quit? You run? You start blaming others? It's like, no. Keeping the main thing this week, we've been going at it, deeply believing in these guys. And we want it for them to come out on the right side of the scoreboard, and that's the approach this week....

2+ min ago (196+ words) This post breaks down how we deploy TensorFlow Lite Micro (TFLM) on ESP32-S3 to run real-time wake word detection and other edge-AI workloads. If you're exploring embedded ML on MCUs, this is a practical reference. ESP32-S3 brings a useful combination of: It's powerful enough to run quantized CNNs for audio, IMU, and multimodal workloads while staying power-efficient. ESP-DSP supports optimized FFT, DCT, and filtering primitives. 2. Feature extraction (MFCC) MFCC remains the standard for low-power speech workloads: On ESP32-S3, MFCC extraction typically takes 23 ms per frame. 3. Compact CNN model Model size after int8 quantization: 100300 KB. Convert & quantize: 4. Deployment to MCU Convert .tflite " C array: Load + run with TensorFlow Lite Micro: Because the workflow is generalizable, simply swapping the model unlocks new tasks: Environmental sound classification Glass break, alarm, pet sound detection (812 FPS depending on model) Vibration & anomaly detection Predictive maintenance for pumps, motors, or fans....
