The subject came back recently in the comments section of a post about Tmall Genie smart speaker, via a post by Michaela Merz which compares PS3 Eye against Respeaker Mic Array v2.0 ( $69), and explains how to setup PS3 Eye’s microphone array in Raspberry Pi 3. PS3 Eye was actually part of the article we published two years ago, and the camera performed well in comparison to more expensive development kits. It comes with three video capture programs and the drivers. You may even already have one, so no need to spend extra money.

The price of smart audio development kits varies a lot from $500 for Intel Speech Enabling Developer Kit to $129 for an Allwinner R18-based 3-Mic Far-Field Amazon AVS Development Kit, and $99 for ReSpeaker Core v2. Almost exactly two years ago to the day, we published an article showing how microphone arrays performed against a single USB microphone, and the latter started to have a poor wake word detection success rate at around 3 meters array even in a silent room, and it got worse with white noise or background music, while the microphone arrays would pick up the wake word with a much higher success rate in all conditions.
