The 3.7 kB Alarm: A Zero-Bloat Edge AI Smoke Detector in Pure C
You are building a critical IoT safety device — a smart smoke and fire detector.
It monitors 12 environmental variables in parallel: temperature, humidity, TVOC, eCO2, raw hydrogen, ethanol, barometric pressure, and five particulate matter metrics.
You want a neural network to catch the non-linear chemical signatures of an imminent fire before the flames start.
Then you look at the industry standard for Edge AI.
