Any AI schematic simulator?

I wonder if there are any AI based solutions to load a jpg schematic of an electronic music device to simulate the circuit and be able to examine various parts of it as if it was real (for example probing at various spots of the circuit, etc.)? Do you know anything like that?

Things like Spice circuit emulators have been around for decades with no LLMs.
Small synthesizer and audio circuits are more fun to breadboard (then you can watch to see if anything explodes and lets the magic smoke out)

Would you get a shock if you touched a virtual part? Anything less and it's not a very accurate simulation!bencuri wrote: Mon Mar 30, 2026 11:40 pm I wonder if there are any AI based solutions to load a jpg schematic of an electronic music device to simulate the circuit and be able to examine various parts of it as if it was real (for example probing at various spots of the circuit, etc.)?

What the OP is asking can be broken down into some sort of “OCR” to load/draw the schematic into an electronic simulation software like SPICE, which could then perform simulations with the bundled tools or external tools.
I don’t know if something like this exists (it’s not my area of expertise), but the “OCR” part could be useful… as long as the schematic is drawn well, on a single page or multiple pages with correct routing designations! Some schematics floating around the web are old scans, sometimes hand drawn, sometimes they have low-resolution, sometimes they have mistakes (sometimes intentional!), the designations to connect the parts of the circuit across multiple pages are less than clear… easier said than done, in my opinion.
