Totally agree that we need decent, open hardware, and that's why we're set on building it :) This will take some time, but in the mean time, we've launched a "Maker Kit" ( https://makers.snips.ai/kit&

And I do invite you to try out our voice platform, running 100% on-device on Raspberry Pi 3 or equivalent (and soon MCUs). We're on par with Amazon, Google et al. in terms of performance: - https://makers.snips.ai/ -

Hi, co-author here (and co-founder of www.snips.ai). We are building a voice platform for IoT which runs 100% on-device, because we don't want our devices to stream everything we say to a server. At Snips, we've been using a bunch

Good idea! We haven't looked into this yet, although we are preparing iOS and Android versions of Snips which run entirely on the phone.

Yes, as per my comment to badlogic, we are about to publish an in-depth guide for microphone solutions. So far, the ReSpeaker ($79, https://www.seeedstudio.com/ReSpeaker-Mic-Array-Far-field-w%... ) seems to be the most promi

We've been experimenting with three setups so far: the Matrix Creator, the ReSpeaker and the Conexant. We will soon publish an in-depth benchmark, as well as (highly needed!) tutorials on how to set them up so that they work optimally
