Building Your Alexa AVS Smart Speaker Prototype

Microsemi's Amazon Alexa development kit is designed to help developers quickly and easily set up prototypes that demonstrate a high quality voice recognition interface. It comes complete with all the building blocks to help developers build their smart speaker prototypes.now ,we just design this AI board ,not test on banana pi SBC ,this project with Amazon and Microsemi just support raspberry pi 3.
