And this is exact the reason I'm building a Home Assistant instance with local voice processing. Right now it takes a few seconds to process a request and take action on my crappy 1.8ghz laptop with only 4gb of RAM, but it basically does everything I use Alexa for. This announcement is just encouraging me to build a better server with an esp32 satellite.
What are you using for microphones?
I'm still working on question one too. It seems like a microphone array is the best option but a lot of them seem over built for the task.
I guess it would be too easy to just have Plug and Play option. 🤷 I am technically inclined but I don't want to spend a ton of time recreating the wheel.
