Satellite1 HAT Board

The Satellite1 HAT Board is designed to seamlessly integrate with our Core Board, empowering you to create a world-class voice assistant. It features 4 high-performance microphones powered by an XMOS audio processing chip, enabling clear audio capture even in noisy environments. Additionally, the HAT boasts 4 programmable buttons, a headphone jack, and a robust 25W speaker amplifier. It even acts as a multi-sensor by measuring room temperature, humidity, luminosity, and presence when paired with a mmWave radar sensor.
