Project Overview

EchoLogger is a modularized low-cost development board project primarily aimed at monitoring environmental variables and recording sound. Its modular design facilitates the custom assembly of components to meet specific customer requirements. The device is tailored to streamline the non-industrialized production process by allowing the soldering of prefabricated components.
