Hello
If I understood correctly from the product description and samples I can use the UMA8 as an out of the box solution for talking with Cortana as is USB plug and play.
I'd like to know if there's an recommended enclosure or case which fits this device to deploy it in the living room

Thank you!

@ amselem

That's indeed correct. Exactly as shown in the app note here :-)
www.minidsp.com/applications/usb-mic-array/uma-8-cortana

No case "yet", there should be one out in few weeks we hope.. manufacturing of plastic parts took a lot longer than expected... :-(
Stay tuned

Thank you for the info!

I understand that the UMA8 does not include any speaker but an I2S port. Do you think that the case will have enough spare room to include a small speaker to hear Cortana (like the amazon echo dot)?

Can you also point or recommend a speaker which fits this function ?

Can you provide any update as to when an enclosure may be available for the uma-8 array?

@GJPoss

We'd expect to start shipments of the enclosures circa mid of January. We actually already received circa 100pcs of them.
We just updated the LED on the latest version of the UMA8 to have brighter LED pattern on the LED lightguide.

Dear All

Our sincere apologies it took so long! New things like plastic moldling and lightpipes aren't as straight forward as they seem sometimes.. :-(

Here is the case now available from the webstore! :-)

Thanks to all of you for your patience.

I've read that you have updated the leds on the UMA8 to work with this case.
If I order the UMA8 from the shop will I receive the latest version?

@ amselem

All units will work with this enclosure. :-) It's just that the latest version now shipping for the past 4months have been using stronger LED so they output more light for the light guide.
