At Ambient Scientific, we don’t just build hardware, we build the tools that make edge AI truly work.

And with the release of SDK 6.0.0, we’re giving developers the fastest, cleanest, and most capable toolkit we’ve ever shipped. Whether you’re designing voice interfaces, building real-time computer vision, or deploying intelligence on sensor-rich devices, this is the SDK built for you.

With a brand-new GUI tool, advanced CNN flexibility, and a lighter, more intuitive architecture, SDK 6.0.0 takes the complexity out of edge AI development and replaces it with speed, confidence, and total control.

Why SDK 6.0.0 Changes the Game

Let’s face it: building edge AI isn’t always easy. Most SDKs aren’t made for real-world constraints. They’re bulky, they assume constant connectivity, and they make you jump through hoops just to run a basic model on your device.

We’ve changed that.

SDK 6.0.0 brings together everything developers need, smarter compilers, no-code data tools, faster installs, and better documentation; all in one unified, developer-first experience. And now that it's officially live, developers can start building right away.

What’s New in SDK 6.0.0

Lightweight. Streamlined. Ready in Minutes.

• Install size reduced from 3.2 GB to under 1 GB
• New install.bat script automates full Python environment setup
• Simplified folder structure with clean APIs and better organization

This means less time configuring and more time creating.

‍

Preloaded with Wake Word Detection

SDK 6.0.0 ships with a high-performance Wake Word Detection application built on a compact CNN pipeline.

We’ve temporarily removed other sensor-based demos like Fall Detection and Smart Agriculture due to current DVK board limitations, but what you get is a fully functional, real-world voice AI demo; ready to test, modify, and scale on-device.

Compiler: Fully Upgraded for Deep Learning on the Edge

We’ve supercharged the compiler to support more flexible, efficient model architectures.

CNN 1D Features:

• Asymmetric and symmetric input & kernel sizes
• Strides, valid/same padding
• Bias options (on/off)
• Activation functions: ReLU, Leaky ReLU

Max Pooling (1D & 2D):

• Asymmetric pool sizes, stride support
• Channel-first and channel-last formats
• Padding: valid/same

Depthwise Convolution:

• Added support for model compression and optimization

Built-in FFT API for Real-Time Signal Processing

Our latest SDK now includes a 256-point FFT API, implemented entirely in software. Ideal for audio, vibration, or waveform analysis without cloud dependencies.

‍

Documentation You’ll Actually Want to Read

All SDK documentation has been updated, cleaned up, and made easier to navigate. Everything is now available in consistent, searchable PDF format, from installation to compiler references.

You’ll find:

• The latest Compiler User Guide
• SDK Installation Notes
• Streamlined application documentation

No more sifting through clutter. Just the information you need, when you need it.

EdgeSphere: No-Code. No Delay. Just Data-In to Intelligence-Out.

Say hello to EdgeSphere, our new GUI tool included with SDK 6.0.0.

It’s built for developers who want to collect and label audio and video data from real-world sensors, without touching a single line of code.

With EdgeSphere, you can:

• Rapidly prototype using real sensor input
• Create labeled datasets with ease
• Streamline field validation and deployment

It’s the ultimate assistant for edge AI developers, and it’s now a core part of the SDK.

Designed for Developers. Built to Scale.

Here’s what SDK 6.0.0 unlocks for your workflow:

• Offline-first development: build anywhere, deploy everywhere
• Sensor-ready API support: UART, I2C, BLE, FFT, ADC, and more
• Model control like never before: configure CNNs, run FFTs, debug faster
• Frictionless prototyping: EdgeSphere handles the data, you handle the ideas

Whether you're a startup building a smart device or an enterprise team scaling robotics platforms, this SDK is made to power your vision.
