It is built around the CP2102N-EK, ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8 and AMS1117-3.3, with the TP4056 among its other parts. Its parts include 5 ICs, 4 capacitors, 2 connectors and 2 switches. It belongs with the ESP32 boards of this library.
Handheld translator for Nigerian languages. No internet needed for common phrases, YarnGPT for everything else.
A pocket-sized translation device built specifically for communication gaps in Nigeria. Supports English, Nigerian Pidgin, Yoruba, and Igbo with offline phrase database and online AI backup.
Try using Google Translate in a Nigerian market. First, you need internet (good luck). Second, it doesn't understand "How much be this?" or "I no fit pay dat price." Third, reading translations off your phone while negotiating looks sketchy.
Tourists, expats, and even Nigerians traveling between language regions need something that:

It measures 110 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
14 parts, built around the CP2102N-EK, ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8, AMS1117-3.3 and TP4056. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
From the DevMubarak1/PidginTranslator repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/pcb/pidgin_translator.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/schematics/main-board.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
