About the Product
Your Raspberry Pi computer is like an electronic brain - and with the Adafruit Voice Bonnet, you can also give it a mouth and ears! Featuring two microphones and two-watt speaker outputs using a high-quality I2S codec, this Pi add-on will work with any Raspberry Pi with a 2x20 connector - from the Pi Zero up to the Pi 5 and beyond (basically all but the very first ones made).
The on-board WM8960 codec uses I2S digital audio for great quality recording and playback - so it sounds a lot better than the headphone jack on the Pi (or the no-headphone jack on a Pi Zero). We put ferrite beads and filter capacitors on every input and output to get the best possible performance, all at a great price.
We designed this bonnet for making machine learning projects such as DIY voice assistants - for example, see this guide on creating a DIY Google Assistant. But you could do various voice-activated or voice-recognition projects. With two microphones, basic voice position can be detected as well.
WM8960 codec uses I2S digital audio for both input and output
On/Off privacy switch to deactivate audio so you know it can't be recorded.

Two 1W speaker outputs
3.5mm stereo headphone or line-out audio
Plugs into any Raspberry Pi with 2x20 headers
With the extra space on the PCB, we also added some bonus extras!
