MMM-Hotword or voicecontrol - far-field mic
-
Hi,
Considering adding voicecontrol capabilities to my MM by using MMM-Hotword or voiceontrol on my pi3.
Do you think that think kind of mic would do the job?
Will the module be able to recognize it?
Regards

I didn’t tried. But if it could be recognized as a recording device on RPI and could be controlled byarecord
(orrecord
), it could be usable. -

I was also checking for a mic in case and found some guys used a mic branded “Andoer”.
Didnt try it yet -
That type of mic would solve a TON of problems…currently when using voice and you have music playing the mic seems to fail…but with far field mics it should be a different story… sort of like an Alexa…

Indeed…It will also avoid the USB latence issue which I saw in several threads…
There are tons of mic arrays (mainly called ReSpeaker). Some of them are expensive (79USD).
I just found that one which already includes connexion board to the Pi, only have 4 mics but is cheaper. Seems to be a good comprise.
I just need to figure out how to connect it to the Pi without using / covering the full GPIO as I already have 2 others sensors connected on it.
