Omi Firmware Developer Kit

Everything you need to flash, debug, and develop custom firmware for the Omi AI wearable.

What's Inside

• SEGGER J-Link debugger: Industry-standard SWD/JTAG programmer for the nRF5340
• J-Link to USB cable: Connect the debugger to your development machine
• 2-pin jumper wires: For connecting to Omi's SWD debug pads
• Omi Flash PCB: Custom breakout board that interfaces directly with the Omi hardware, providing easy access to the nRF5340's debug interface without disassembly

Built For

• Embedded engineers building custom firmware for the nRF5340 dual-core SoC
• Developers extending Omi's BLE 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6 (nRF7002) capabilities
• Teams integrating Omi into custom workflows, enterprise deployments, or research applications
• Anyone who wants to go beyond the stock firmware and make Omi do exactly what they need

Compatible With

• Omi wearable (nRF5340-CLAA + nRF7002)
• nRF Connect SDK (Zephyr RTOS)
• SEGGER Embedded Studio, VS Code + nRF Extension, and other standard ARM toolchains
• macOS, Windows, and Linux

Getting Started

1. Connect the J-Link to your computer via USB
2. Attach the Flash PCB to your Omi device
3. Wire the 2-pin SWD connection
4. Flash using nRF Connect SDK, J-Link Commander, or your preferred IDE
5. Full documentation and example firmware available at github.com/BasedHardware/omi

Why This Kit?

Omi is fully open-source: hardware, firmware, and software. This kit gives you physical access to the debug interface so you can modify every layer of the stack. No locked bootloaders, no proprietary toolchains, no permission needed.
