What people build

Community builds for Meta’s Muse Gadgets

Short answer

People are exploring e-ink displays, voice devices, home automation, wearables and homelab tools around Meta’s Muse Gadgets. This wall keeps their original public X posts intact, with our category and status labels. Ideas and ongoing experiments are labeled separately from reported builds.

Each entry has an explicit source post, and duplicate source posts appear once. The posts are their authors’ accounts, not verification that every build works. A build without its own repository belongs on this wall rather than in the project directory.

@alexandr_wang The e-ink examples suggest a fun build: a little 'what did the house just do?' panel showing the last device action and its result. A physical pause button alongside it would make agent debugging feel much less like hunting through logs 🙂

@alexandr_wang great idea, i do that with my openclaw already. My agent controls a mini-display at home showing our calendars, sets music in our sonos accordingly and controls our homeassistant on demand.

@alexandr_wang Sweet. I have muse connected to my home assistant using the tail scale connector. But having the gadgets sdk will open a lot of new possibilities.

@alexandr_wang have been using my FB portal together with Muse, and it worked out neatly! Muse helped to build a Family Dashboard and a photo album app sits right on the kitchen counter!

This was almost way too easy, @natfriedman @alexandr_wang 😮 I turned my Xteink eReader into an always-on Muse pocket display for Calliope (my Muse) to display itself and show status updates. And this attaches with MagSafe to my phone, so I can always see relevant updates from Muse by just turning my phone around. The setup flow in the Muse app was super smooth and you can just ask Muse to load or automate content on the display. I genuinely love the hacker-friendly aspect of this. Well done.

Muse Gadgets are here. You can have a little Jolly everywhere. My first one sits by the wine rack. Snap the label, Muse reads the producer and vintage, and the bottle shows up in our personal cellar over Tailscale (Muse has a Tailscale connector support!). It's a ~$50 sensecap watcher device and took less than an hour to build. You can grab any ESP32 or Raspberry Pi and you can build your own smart home gadget. Go build one. Happy building! https://t.co/pHAIp0DVFm

@alexandr_wang I installed that on my Mac Pro running Ubuntu Server with some custom scripts I made. Now I can ask Muse to update monerod and p2pool for me and give me a status on my Monero mining and all I have to do is type a couple prompts. Yes...Muse is running my crypto mining stuff for me

📹 @Meta @Muse app: Streaming and controlling my home camera from Muse App. I connected my baby camera to Muse as a custom connector. Now I can watch the live stream and pan/tilt it using natural-language commands in the Muse app. No separate camera app needed for viewing or control. Example :🗣️ “Show me the baby camera.” “Can you move the camera a little higher?” “A little lower.” “Look to the left.” “Now to the right.” “Stop.” ⚙️ How streaming and camera control work 🖥️ Local Bridge: A small server on my Mac mini keeps the camera credentials local, authenticates with the camera, and sends ONVIF movement commands. FFmpeg and MediaMTX, running on the same Mac mini, convert the camera’s RTSP stream into browser-playable HLS. 🌐 Transport: Cloudflare Tunnel carries control requests from the Muse widget, through the web app’s backend, to the local bridge. It also delivers the HLS stream back to the widget, with authentication protecting both the video feed and camera controls so only I can access them. 🔐 This lets me view and control the camera outside my home network, while the Mac mini and its services remain running. 🔌 The bridge exposes an HTTP interface, so the same approach can work with other compatible IP cameras, from a nursery camera to one watching the driveway. No additional software needs to be installed on the camera itself.

My AI agent just retired my Google home. I built a sensor MCP connected sensors to wifi and now Claude lives inside my home. Turning lights off, security checks, baby monitoring! https://t.co/MJ4ua7f3CA

My five-year-old takes forever to get into his pyjamas. So I programmed him a Tamagotchi. The device is the M5Stack FIRE (wanted the bigger battery). I saw it on Twitter and bought it on a whim, about $80 on Amazon. It's an ESP32 dev kit that looks like a tiny Game Boy: 2 inch colour screen, but just three buttons, speaker, accelerometer, wifi, battery. It even clips onto Lego. When it arrived I plugged it in and opened Claude. Prompt 1: "Help me scope out a Tamagotchi type game for my two young kids, that can help them do simple chores (plus a 60 second "get dressed" timer) and get rewards for it." It came back with a game design spec: two playable characters (Hugo and Stella, my kids), a stable of mini games, coins earned for playing games or doing real-world jobs like putting dishes away or getting dressed (the original brief was Hugo racing a timer into his pyjamas), and a store to spend coins for fun items. Prompt 2: "ok build it. Make no mistakes (QA it for me plz Im lazy)." I did the planning in Codex, then handed the plan to Claude Code to build (my dev skill has Claude Fable orchestrate it, but calls Codex for plan review, and for the bulk of the TDD actual dev, then both models review before shipping). I went to bed. the tamagotchi was up and running by the morning. Prompt 3 was an art pass, and actually just removing a handful of the most boring games. The first round graphics were pretty crappy, so I gave Claude a pic of both kids, and said get GPT Image 2 to create a handful of polished "90's style pixel Game Boy style characters and same for game graphics. and now the whole thing looks like a lost 1993 cartridge. What the kids ended up with: rad looking personalised gameboy characters that look like them, 15 mini games: penalty kick, a maths game Hugo loves, rollercoaster, a shark game that uses the accelerometer so you tilt the whole device to eat fish, walk the dog that apparently measure steps (?), and coins for real-world jobs. Then an in-game store to blow them in unlockable characters: Elsa, Ariel, Moana, a mermaid, Soccer player, Dinosaur etc. Funny, claude wouldn't make the sprites (Disney IP!) until I convinced it it's only for my kids and will never hit the internet. Then it was fine. Stella had saved 106 coins. I spent 100 on the mermaid while filming the demo (sorry Stella). In the '90s this was a full Game Boy title from a studio with a publisher. blows my mind that it's now three prompts and some Claude Fable credits on an $80 toy. How good is 2026?! The M5 device: https://t.co/PUYKVL5qjk on Amazon: https://t.co/F5ja42YTEb I'm building Nitrosend, AI-Native Email. Same kinda thing, applied to your email marketing: https://t.co/AT3FK2t0A0

@natfriedman I turned my old Android phone into a bridge for making my home a little smarter and connecting it with agents. No more leaving the house and wondering whether i forgot to switch off the heater or the lights. Smart move from Meta! Never a dull moment in AI. https://t.co/QAYtxzJuig

Ya, this is going to be big. A few months ago I bought an ESP32, and turned it into a pokedex linked with my personal card collection (https://t.co/FMx395omjC) So that I can, on the go, check if I have a specific card + its price. Soon everyone will have multiple gadgets like this that solve specific pain points in their life. Creativity will likely be the only bottleneck

@alexandr_wang @MattPRD the first gadget the bank wants: a little ESP32 receipt ticker for the wall. 🏦 every 12 hours, when the keeper sweeps, it lights up — amounts in, shares out, full hashes. no promises. just receipts, now in hardware.

@natfriedman Love this direction, @Meta. I'd start with a small bench display: current job, what's blocking it, and one button to ask for help. If the agent lives where the work happens, people can keep their hands on the work. // STATIC MONKEY

@natfriedman I love the idea of using ESP32 for custom hardware! I built a simple weather station with it last year, and now I'm excited to integrate it with Muse. Can't wait to see what others come up with using the SDK—let's get building! 🌟

Muse brings AI to hardware. Next: the ability to pay and earn. TLAY’s open-source ESP32 machine wallet stack already powers machine payments with @circle USDC and @arc Imagine that economic infrastructure inside Muse gadgets. A new frontier for USDC: everyday devices.

神了,彻底开源!连固件都直接白给! Meta 刚刚宣布开源 Muse Gadgets,允许全球任何人用开源硬件自制 AI 外设。 首批 5000 个官方拓展器免费赠送,喵个咪,这波操作真是把 AI 硬件的门槛给砸穿了啊, 刚刷到 Alexandr Wang 宣布开源 Muse Gadgets 的这篇推文,我之前折腾过单片机和嵌入式,真的有点被击中了啊啊啊啊,无比兴奋!! 很多朋友可能看到 ESP32、Linux SDK 这些专业词觉得离自己很远, 我用大白话给大家翻译一下 Meta 到底干了件什么事: 他们把自家旗舰 AI 智能体 Muse 连接物理世界的通道全部彻底开源了, 从今天起,哪怕你手里只有一块十几块钱、平时丢在抽屉里吃灰的 ESP32 小芯片,或者一台树莓派, 你只要把他们写好的固件刷进去,就能亲手做出一个属于你自己的实体 AI 硬件。 同时他们自己还做了第一款官方小外设叫 Muse Home Link, 一个特别小巧的 USB-C 拓展器,首批做了 5000 个,直接免费送给订阅用户,用来让 Muse 控制家里的电视、音箱和各种智能家居。 这段发布之所以让我有点兴奋,是因为它打破了我以前对 AI 硬件的一个深层认知误区。 过去这一两年,几乎全网都在卷所谓的 AI 原生硬件, 从几百美金的胸针到各种造型奇特的掌上小盒子, 大厂们习惯把一个大模型封死在一个昂贵的塑料壳子里,卖你几千块钱,最后发现除了语音对话啥也不能干,买回家不出三天就扔在角落吃灰。 而 Alexandr Wang 这次展现出来的思路完全反过来了, 他没有关起门来逼大家买 Meta 的硬件,而是直接把硬件的驱动权交还给了全球的极客和开发者。 你在官方开源的代码库里能看到各种让人眼前一亮的现成玩法: → 给十几块钱的带屏手表刷上固件,按住就能跟 Muse 实时对讲; → 接上一块几十块钱的彩色电子墨水屏,早上醒来它自动把今天的日程、天气和核心待办用极具质感的排版推到你桌面上; → 甚至插在电视的 HDMI 接口上,一句话就能让 Muse 把复杂的图表和视频直接投在客厅的大屏幕上。 这背后其实藏着一个特别朴素但很多大厂都没想明白的常识: AI 真正的大脑在云端,它根本不需要每个人都去重新买一台昂贵的专用电脑; 物理世界真正需要的,只是无数个极低成本、极小体积、能听能看能按的末端神经触角。 当别人还在试图垄断硬件入口去收割智商税的时候, 他们把连接协议彻底公开,让全世界的脑洞帮他们一起把 AI 铺进千家万户的每个角落。 @alexandr_wang 在推文里说了一句特别打动我的话: 很多人问为什么要把这套东西开源? 首先,亲手做各种好玩的小玩意儿, 这件事本身就极度有乐趣, 其次,我们想把创造力彻底还给那些真正的建造者。 技术的终局可能真不是做几个昂贵的奢侈品摆件, 而是当门槛降到十几块钱的时候, 每个普通人都能把 AI 捏成自己喜欢的样子。 如果给你一块十几块钱就能连上顶级 AI 的小芯片,你最想把它改造成什么放在身边呢? 我最想把它做成一个粘在冰箱上的墨水屏小便利贴, 不仅每天提醒我什么菜快过期了,还能根据冰箱里剩的食材顺手给我排一份晚餐食谱hh~
