Why TinyML on ESP32-S3 Bottlenecks on Memory, Quantization, and Real-Time Inference

ESP32-S3 can run TinyML, but production success depends less on AI instructions alone and more on SRAM, tensor arena sizing, INT8 quantization, operator support, PSRAM latency, sensor pipelines, and real-time inference budgets. This article explains the practical bottlenecks and boundaries.
