Hey guys, we launched a project to Kickstarter days ago - ReSpeaker. And this project is based on ReSpeaker.

There are many instructables/tutorials showing how to DIY a speaker, but none of them have shown how to DIY a Voice-Controlled Wi-Fi Speaker, not even to mention that it also comes with an awesome appearance. In this instructable we will be showing how to use ReSpeaker - an open modular voice-enabled development board to make your own Gatling Gun-Style smart wireless speaker.
