Amazon Lab126 is a subsidiary of Amazon.com focused on development of consumer electronic products. The Amazon Lab126 Clinic team will design a configurable microphone-speaker system. It must fit into arbitrary product enclosures while supporting 16 location-adjustable microphones and computer interfacing for automated testing. The system will support stereo, mono, and 5.1-surround sound speaker outputs. This project will expedite the testing process for future prototypes in the Amazon Echo family of products with varying microphone and speaker configurations.
