Description

Seeed Studio reSpeaker Flex XVF3800 Linear-4 with XIAO ESP32S3 is a split-type 4-microphone voice front end for smart terminals, kiosks, embedded systems, and MCU-based voice products. This version combines the core board, linear 4-mic array board, and a pre-installed XIAO ESP32S3, giving developers a more direct path to compact embedded voice applications.

Powered by the XMOS XVF3800, the module supports advanced onboard audio processing including AEC, AGC, beamforming, DoA, VAD, noise suppression, and de-reverberation. Seeed notes that the XIAO ESP32S3 versions ship with factory-installed I2S firmware, making this model especially useful for MCU integration, XIAO ecosystem development, and directional voice interfaces built into front-facing devices.

Features

  • Pre-installed XIAO ESP32S3: Adds a compact MCU platform for embedded and IoT voice development.
  • Factory I2S firmware: Optimized for MCU-based audio integration rather than USB-host-first use.
  • Linear 4-mic array: Designed for 180 degree directional voice pickup in front-facing installations.
  • XMOS XVF3800 audio processor: Provides far-field capture and real-time acoustic enhancement.
  • Split core-and-array layout: Helps place the mic array at the interaction surface while the processing board stays elsewhere in the enclosure.
  • Far-field pickup up to 5 meters: Useful for kiosks, signage, smart terminals, and interactive products.
  • Advanced audio algorithms: Includes AEC, AGC, beamforming, VAD, noise suppression, and de-reverberation.
  • Narrow embedded form factor: Uses about 33 mm spacing and around 110 mm array length for compact front-side mounting.
