Shameless self-plug but with my project Willow[0] we have a management server implementation to deal with multiple devices, etc. We have a new feature called "Willow One Wake" that takes the incoming audio amplitude when wake word is detected and uses our Willow Application Server (python) to only activate wake on the device closest to the person speaking. Old and tired compared to the commercial stuff but a first in the open source space. The asyncio improvements in Python 3.12 especially (plus perf generally) have been instrumental in enabling real world use of this. With Python 3.12 asyncio, uvloop, and FastAPI it works remarkably well[1]. As the demo video shows not only does it not delay responsiveness, it has granularity down to inches.
