Ihave BOX-3 / 2 Atom Echo running only local. Very happy with the 3 separate wake words I created for them. As a novice I very happy with them, fast wake word action and replies. Would love to use the presence detection as well.

Nokia do quite an interesting tablet due to its twin mic design and audio dsp with its OZO Spatial Audio Recording and Playback software.

The Nokia T21 is relatively budget but all metal 10.4" for 175 and you can pick up the relatively similar T20 for 100.


I spent some time before Xmas and purchased x2 1080p pan tilt cams that many will see for $25 which have 2 way audio.

I got a IMUI Ranger2 and just a generic and the audio on both when it comes to audio out and mic is pretty awful.

So I scrapped that idea until a manufacturer maybe does include a isolated far field mic as think as a device they could be perfect.


The tablets though and the above are just the best budget ones I could find that have a mic array built in could very well make excellent dev bases.

Samsung also a big name, but seemed to be lacking with mic arrays for far field.


Apparently GitHub - topjohnwu/Magisk: The Magic Mask for Android will run on the 3T10 so likely making all customisable. Might not even be needed.

You can still test the 3T10 with Google assistant and give some feedback on how it does with far field distance and 3rd party noise.


Samsung is only a single Mic and likely only works well near field, but the reason to get a tablet with a mic array is that its likely they already have mic array DSP software built in as both the acatel & nokia seem to.


I can make a beamforming 2 mic on a PiZero2 and have a repo with a C/C++ delay sum beamformer but the little bit of soldering and tinkering to create a finnished product seems to be off putting to many who just want a finnished product such as a conference mic.


If anyone knows of any other mic array tablets please say as you really do have to dredge the specs to be sure. As in the Acatel 3T8 is single mic whilst 3T10 is dual so you have to really check the specs.


I am okay near field assistant use for the time being. If beam forming or similar becomes necessary then I would be willing to solder something together, especially if I can recycle some of my ESP32 or ODROID N2+ boards.


I think I can write a manifest that when in charging mode I can run certain apps.

So idea is to get a wireless charging dock so it works like google assistant and in your hand the normal tablet.

Dunno but been meaning to play with Android studio and already done a bit of research, but most code already exists on github.


Here you can see how i use area in script field ( " area " ).

That script takes humidity level in area and returns it in result. Then i take value from result via action_response["humidity"] and speak it.
