HAOKAI helps OEM and ODM teams connect microphone layout, audio algorithms, hardware interface and mechanical structure into one production-ready voice pickup module.
Array Layout
Choose linear, circular, front-facing or role-separated microphone layouts according to device structure and pickup direction.
Audio Processing
Tune echo cancellation, noise suppression, AGC, beamforming and voice enhancement around the speaker position and acoustic environment.
Interface
Match the host platform with UAC 1.0/2.0, I2S, PDM, SPI and I2C control, then define firmware parameters and raw or processed audio output.
Mechanical Fit
Adapt PCB outline, mounting holes, acoustic sealing, vibration isolation, mesh openings, LED indicators and camera-microphone integration.
Platform compatibility
A microphone array is part of the full audio system. We align the module, protocol and tuning path with the selected host platform rather than treating the array as a standalone accessory.
Platform selection and tuning can be aligned with the compute, audio path and software stack already selected for the device.
Define driver, firmware and application integration around the target operating environment before prototype release.
Choose the transport and control path that fits the product architecture, certification target and production test process.
Base platforms
4/8-mic far-field module for conferencing terminals, smart displays and embedded AI voice devices.
Circular microphone array for robots and voice-interactive devices that need 360-degree pickup and direction feedback.
Directional array module for focused voice capture in judicial recording, service terminals and controlled conversation equipment.
Role-separated microphone module for counter service, two-party recording, interview desks and translation terminals.
Acoustic performance targets
The values below are practical design targets. Final performance is confirmed for the selected DSP platform, microphone configuration, enclosure and test environment.
Far-field pickup
3 m, 5 m, up to 10 m
Target capture distance is defined against room noise, talker level and device placement.
Noise suppression
Up to 30 dB+
Stationary and non-stationary noise reduction is tuned to the deployment environment.
Echo cancellation
Up to 50 dB+ ERLE
AEC target depends on loudspeaker design, enclosure coupling and reference signal quality.
Sound source localization
360 degrees, within +/-5 degrees
For qualified circular arrays under the agreed test conditions.
Reverberant rooms
RT60 above 0.8 s
Dereverberation strategy and microphone placement are evaluated in the target room profile.
Mechanical and structural acoustics
The most expensive problems usually appear after the enclosure is frozen. We review the microphone-to-enclosure path, built-in speaker coupling and manufacturing constraints early in the design cycle.
Plan silicone boots and controlled acoustic ports to reduce leakage paths between the microphone, enclosure and speaker cavity.
Separate microphones from built-in speaker vibration and structure-borne noise with practical mounting and damping guidance.
Review cavity volume, port direction, dust mesh and water-resistance tradeoffs before tooling locks the acoustic path.
Application fit
| Scenario | Voice pickup need | Recommended customization direction |
|---|---|---|
| Video Conferencing | Room voice pickup with speaker echo control | 4/8-mic far-field array with AEC and AGC tuning |
| Smart Terminal | Front-facing user voice in public service spaces | Directional pickup module with noise suppression |
| Robotics | All-around wakeup and speaker direction detection | Circular array with DOA and LED indication |
| Judicial Recording | Clear records with speaker or role separation | Directional array or A/B channel-separated module |
| Education | Teacher and student pickup for lecture capture | 360-degree room pickup with camera matching |
| Digital Human Kiosk | Noise-resistant interaction while device audio plays | Directional array plus AEC and camera integration |
Customization showcase
A circular array architecture can combine 360-degree pickup, sound source localization and LED direction feedback while tuning around motor and fan noise.
Role-separated A/B channel arrays can be tailored for counter terminals, recording systems and translation devices where speaker isolation matters.
Development workflow
Confirm application, pickup distance, speaker position, host interface, enclosure limits and production target.
Select a base module or custom layout, then define microphone count, board outline, interface and audio processing direction.
Build samples, adjust firmware parameters, validate AEC/noise reduction and review audio performance in the target structure.
Support pilot runs, test standards, reliability checks, certification preparation and mass-production quality control.
Before proposal
Share the product context first. HAOKAI can then recommend a base module, estimate the required modification scope and identify acoustic risks early.
FAQ
Yes. Most projects begin from a proven base module, then adjust microphone layout, PCB shape, interface, firmware parameters, mechanical fit or camera matching to reduce development risk.
Yes. Directional pickup is suitable for kiosks, service counters and recording terminals. 360-degree pickup is better for meeting rooms, classrooms, robots and all-around voice interaction.
Depending on the selected platform, projects can support echo cancellation, noise suppression, automatic gain control, voice enhancement, beamforming, sound source localization and related tuning.
Yes. HAOKAI develops camera modules and array microphone modules, so camera-microphone integration can be planned for conferencing, digital human, education and smart terminal devices.
