Project title:
Embedded Hardware & Firmware Developer – Audio Puck Prototype
Posted by:
External project from PeoplePerHour
Started:
17-Aug-2025 01:46 GMT
Description:
Expected duration: 6-10 weeks
Description:
I am developing a small standalone audio-processing puck that attaches to the back of a mobile phone. An early breadboard version has already been built (with schematic, BOM, and partial firmware). I now need a skilled freelancer to refine this into a compact puck design with working firmware and deliver a testable prototype.

Your role will be to:

Review existing breadboard design files (schematic, BOM, early firmware)

Redesign into a puck-form PCB suitable for attaching to a phone

Write and implement firmware to process audio and trigger outputs based on provided phrase lists (details shared after NDA)

Integrate microphones, BLE, vibration motor, LED, and MCU/AI chip

Assemble the puck and test functionality

Provide a short video demonstration of it working

Ship the assembled prototype to me in the UK

Requirements:

Strong experience in embedded hardware + firmware development

Familiarity with audio devices, MEMS microphones, BLE, low-power design

PCB design skills (KiCad/Altium) with experience miniaturizing breadboard prototypes

Ability to write custom firmware for audio phrase/event detection

Clear communication and full documentation of work

Deliverables:

Refined schematic + PCB layout

Verified BOM with supplier links

Working firmware (.bin and/or source) implementing phrase/event detection logic

Assembled and tested puck prototype

Video demo of prototype working

Prototype shipped to UK

Documentation of design and firmware

Milestones:

Audit & Plan – Review existing design, provide updated schematic/BOM plan

PCB Redesign (Puck Form Factor) – Deliver compact PCB layout + BOM

Firmware Development – Implement phrase/event detection logic (details after NDA)

Prototype Build & Video Demo – Deliver assembled, working prototype with demo video

Delivery – Ship prototype to UK with final files and documentation

Location preference:
UK or European freelancers preferred.

Budget:
Flexible depending on experience. Please provide a realistic proposal with cost and timeline by milestone.

Note:
An NDA will be required before full details and files are shared.
