The board features a six-microphone array with Alango’s Voice Enhancement Package, “VEP”. Alango's VEP is a set of software technologies comprised of a multi-microphone beam-forming array and echo canceller, which supports far-field speech recognition enhancement in smart home products, mobile phones, and automotive voice-controlled applications. It is configurable from 1 to 16 microphones, depending on the use case and available computational resources. VEP has been ported and optimized to efficiently run on many popular computational platforms.
