The Xiaozhi AI ESP32-S3 module is a compact, all-in-one solution for developing smart devices with voice interaction and visual display, designed for electronics enthusiasts, developers, and hobbyists who want to explore the world of AI assistants on affordable hardware.
At its core is the dual-core ESP32-S3 chip running at 240 MHz, همراه with 16MB Flash and 8MB PSRAM, providing generous resources for running AI applications with fast response times. 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5 LE connectivity ensure easy integration into smart home projects, personal assistants, or educational devices.
The module integrates the ES8311 audio codec, which handles both sound capture through the built-in microphone and audio playback to an external speaker connected via the PH2.0 connector, enabling natural conversations with the chosen AI assistant.
It supports switching between popular AI models such as Qwen, DeepSeek, and Doubao through the xiaozhi.me platform, offering high flexibility for various use cases. The source code can also be customized to be used with APIs from other platforms such as ChatGPT.
The 1.54-inch color LCD display with a 240x240-pixel resolution shows conversation content, system status, and battery level in real time, making interaction more intuitive and enjoyable. The board includes dedicated BOOT and volume control buttons (+ / -), a 3.7V Li-Ion battery management circuit with PH2.0 connector, and programming and charging are conveniently done through the USB Type-C port.
The compact 40 x 40 mm dimensions make the module easy to integrate into custom enclosures or projects. It is compatible with ESP32-S3 platforms, can be programmed using Arduino IDE, ESP-IDF, or MicroPython, and integrates natively with the xiaozhi.me ecosystem.
The module ships from the factory in Chinese and requires flashing new firmware set to English or Romanian, according to the instructions below.

Usage:
Xiaozhi AI firmware on LCTECH ESP32-S3 1.54 LCD
What do you need?
- LCTECH ESP32-S3 board with 1.54-inch LCD screen
- Good-quality USB Type-C cable (important!)
- Windows PC
- xiaozhi.me account
Step 1 - Install tools
In CMD (Command Prompt):
Python:
Download from https://python.org
During installation, check "Add Python to PATH"
esptool:
| pip install esptool |
ESP-IDF:
Download from https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp-idf/
Install version v5.5.x

Step 2 - Download source code
In ESP-IDF PowerShell:
|
git clone https://github.com/aredridel/xiaozhi-esp32.git -b as/lc-s3-wifi-1.54tft path-to-folder\xiaozhi-lctech |
The command downloads directly into the folder where PowerShell is running. We add the folder path to change this.
Step 3 - Build
In ESP-IDF PowerShell (from the Start Menu):
Navigate to the downloaded folder:
| cd path-to-folder\xiaozhi-lctech |
Run in order:
| $env:IDF_COMPONENT_MANAGER=1 |
| idf.py set-target esp32s3 |
Wait a few minutes for it to finish. When it is done, continue with the command:
| idf.py menuconfig |
In menuconfig:
Xiaozhi Assistant → Board Type → select lc-s3-wifi-1.54tft
Xiaozhi Assistant → Default Language → select English or Romanian
Press S to save → Q to exit
Build:
| idf.py build |
The first time takes 10–15 minutes.
Step 4 - Flashing
In ESP-IDF PowerShell:
- Disconnect the board
- Hold down the BOOT button on the board
- Connect the USB cable to the PC
- Release BOOT after 2 seconds
Run:
| idf.py -p COM3 flash |
(replace COM3 with your port from Device Manager)
Step 5 - Configure xiaozhi.me
Restart the board normally (without BOOT)
On your phone, connect to the ESP’s Wi-Fi
Open the browser at http://192.168.4.1 (or the address shown on the screen). Normally, the browser opens automatically.
Select your Wi-Fi network and enter the password
Go to https://xiaozhi.me and sign up
Click Add Device → enter the 6-digit code shown on the board’s screen
Step 6 - Configure assistant
On xiaozhi.me:
Configure Character
Dialogue Language → Romanian
Voice Role → Romanian voice
Role Introduction → describe how you want the assistant to behave
Save
Usage:
Press BOOT once → the assistant is online, listens, and responds. To exit conversation mode, press BOOT again.
