About this item

The Sipeed MAIX R6+1 Microphone Array is a specialized audio input device designed to enhance voice recognition and audio processing capabilities in AI and IoT applications. It integrates six high-performance digital MEMS microphones arranged in an array, plus an additional microphone (making it R6+1), to capture sound from multiple directions with high sensitivity and low noise. This microphone array is optimized for far-field voice capture, enabling accurate speech recognition even in noisy environments. The multiple microphone setup supports advanced audio processing techniques such as beamforming, noise suppression, and sound source localization, which are critical for smart assistants, voice-controlled devices, and AI-powered audio systems. Compact and compatible with Sipeed’s MAIX AI development boards and modules, the array facilitates quick integration into embedded systems. Its high signal-to-noise ratio and low power consumption make it ideal for edge AI devices that require efficient and precise audio input, such as smart speakers, robotics, and wearable gadgets.
