MATRIX Labs is shaking up the world of fitness app development by launching the next game-changing tool for Internet of Things (IoT) developers. Say hello to MATRIX Voice, a cutting-edge hardware that brings voice-controlled fitness apps to the forefront with its seamless integration with Raspberry Pi.

At the heart of this innovative device lies 64-bit architecture, which boasts impressive voice recognition capabilities powered by Amazon Alexa and Google Voice. This means that makers and hardware developers can create low-cost, high-performance voice-controlled fitness apps in no time.

The MATRIX Voice board features a unique radial array of seven MEMS microphones, connected to a Xilinx Spartan6 FPGA + 64 Mbit SDRAM. This clever design enables users to tap into the power of voice recognition, taking their fitness app creations to the next level.

To further streamline the development process, the MATRIX Voice supports a range of popular services, including Microsoft Cognitive Service, Amazon Alexa Voice Service, Google Speech API, Wit.ai, and Houndify. With these tools at your disposal, you can trigger events based on sound detections and apply pre-configured actions to create a seamless user experience.

The hardware itself boasts an impressive array of features, including 64 GPIO pins (40 for Raspberry Pi, 16 GPIOs, 2 i2c, and power pins) for device-to-device connection. Additionally, it includes far-field voice capture, beam-forming, acoustic source localization, noise suppression, de-reverberation, and acoustic echo cancellation.

For commercial voice solutions, MATRIX Labs is offering a standalone 32-bit microcontroller version with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. This opens up new possibilities for IoT developers looking to create innovative fitness apps that integrate seamlessly with popular smart devices.

To simplify the development process even further, the MATRIX Voice comes equipped with MATRIX OS, an intuitive platform that allows developers to build hardware applications in just a few lines of JavaScript code. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, this tool is designed to make fitness app development fast and affordable.

The MATRIX Voice measures a compact 3.14 inches (yes, pi!) in diameter and is priced at an impressive $45. The company has launched its Indiegogo campaign, seeking a flexible goal investment of $5000.

According to Rodolfo Saccoman, Co-founder and CEO of MATRIX Labs, "MATRIX Voice is our latest addition to the MATRIX Labs toolbox, poised to accelerate the creation of next-generation voice-control apps faster and more cost-effectively than ever before." With its impressive feature set and user-friendly interface, it's no wonder that this innovative device is set to revolutionize the world of fitness app development.
