Pi Zero W TinyML Gesture Wearable Kit with Raspberry Pi Zero
Raspberry Pi Zero W TinyML Gesture Wearable Kit — Build a Gesture IoT Controller
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Imagine flicking your wrist to dim the lights or drawing a circle in the air to play a song. This advanced kit lets you build a wearable gesture controller powered by a Raspberry Pi Zero W running a TensorFlow Lite model trained with Edge Impulse. Classify five distinct gestures with the ADXL345 accelerometer and trigger IoT actions over Wi-Fi — no cloud, no latency.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble a battery-powered wristband that streams motion data to a TinyML model on the Pi. After training, the device will reliably detect five custom gestures — like swipes, circles, and tilts — and wirelessly control lights, locks, or a music system via MQTT.
What You'll Learn
- Collect and label gesture data from the ADXL345 accelerometer
- Train and deploy a TensorFlow Lite model for on-device inference with Edge Impulse
- Solder a wearable IoT circuit with a LiPo battery and TP4056 power management
- Transmit gesture triggers via MQTT to control smart home devices

Who This Kit Is For
This kit is ideal for B.Tech ECE/EEE students tackling IoT or embedded ML capstone projects, Smart India Hackathon teams building interaction prototypes, and advanced makers at IIT, NIT, VIT, or BITS who want to deploy TinyML on a wearable. It assumes you're comfortable with a soldering iron and the Raspberry Pi OS command line.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code on the box to chat with the AI companion trained on this exact build. If you still need help, our WhatsApp support line responds within 12 hours.
Do I need prior machine learning experience?
Some familiarity with Python and Raspberry Pi helps, but the AI companion walks you through Edge Impulse data collection and model training step-by-step.
Can I customize the gestures?
Yes, you'll learn to record your own gesture data and retrain the model with Edge Impulse — the kit is a complete development platform for your own wearable projects.
How long does the battery last?
The 1000mAh LiPo powers the Pi Zero W and accelerometer for about 4-5 hours of continuous inference. The TP4056 charging module lets you recharge via micro USB.
Pi Zero W runs Edge Impulse TFLite gesture model on ADXL345 data. Classifies 5 gestures for IoT control.
