Slim ReSpeaker Zero Case

thingiverse

This is a case designed specifically for a Raspberry Zero W with a Respeaker 2-Mics Pi HAT attached to the top. The ReSpeaker 2-Mics Pi HAT is a dual-microphone expansion board created for use with Raspberry Pi, ideal for AI and voice applications that include Amazon Alexa Voice Service and Google Assistant. This case allows users to place it on a flat surface with the speakers pointing upwards. Its design ensures soundwaves from speaking in front of it are reflected directly onto the microphones. Testing has shown that there is no loss in clearness or loudness when speaking from the front, and actually seems even better. This case is not intended for 360-degree use, as the Respeaker 2-Mics Pi HAT itself is also designed with this limitation. This particular case was made to be as slim as possible, so the headers were removed from the Pi Hat and soldered directly onto the Pi, which significantly reduced its thickness. If users prefer a non-slim version and want to keep the headers, it should be easy to rework the design by increasing the wall height. The Fusion 360 file is available for modification if needed. Additionally, an STL file for spacers used to separate the Raspberry from the Respeaker board at a small distance on each corner has also been included.
