I can’t tell whether AIY kit can work or not due to never tried it, may other developers share experiences. You can also refer to below topic if you’re interested in running DeepSpeech on the Jetson Nano

I own a Nano and a RPI/AIYv1 but I don’t want to rip them both apart… technically (GPIO connection) I think this will work, but most likely you will run into problems installing the AIY software/drivers as this is designed for the RPI/Armbian-Architecture and the Nano is Aarch64-Architecture.
