Research on Hardware Options for Home Assistant Voice Assisstant
Home Assistant Voice Hardware
Home Assistant now supports voice commands using some (?) microphones
compatible with ESPHOME.
Off-The-Shelf Options
There have been two off-the-shelf hardware options, both of these are sold out
(as of 28 Aptil 2024) and the ESP32-S3-Box-3 may no longer be manufactured.
Thoughts on things I'd like to see in CP or I am exploring building with CP in 2022
CircuitPython 2022
2022_1: Snakes in the #%*$& Van
Goal: Layout the requirements and design of a system to use CircuitPython as a basis for
a Camper Van (or RV or Boat) monitoring, tracking and alerting system.
NOTE: This may never be built on CP but I'd like to go through the thought experiment.
My network init which I use for all the CircuitPython things...

Nothing formal written up on this yet, but I think we're seeing the download the
zip file approach start to become brittle. Already there are two different bundles.
My initial thought is why not have a cpip (or modify circup) and use PyPi. One
thing I like about this is that it teaches new programmers things they need to
learn if they also do Python programming. I've not done any real research into
the technical parts of this yet, but in an ideal world, a fork of pip or some modular
components of pip could be used to drive the core logic of version checking and
install and the CP specific parts that deal with the board would be the
I am very interested in the ESP32-S2's camera port and the possibility of using
it for a variety of MicroPython\CircuitPython projects. My hope is that the ESP32-S2
will the ability to do do things similiar to what is possible on the Raspberry Pi.
Today there is no ESP32-S2 board available which exposes this port, and no
camera modeles, but I wanted to understand the hardware capabilities to understand
what might be possible and just as important, what is not.
This write up is based on solely on a morning's worth of research. If there are errors
