Overview

Introduction

This product is an audio module designed based on Sunrise X3 PI. it adopts ES7210 high-performance four-channel encoding chip and ES8156 high-performance stereo audio decoding chip. It is controlled by the I2C interface and audio is transmitted by the I2S interface. The onboard standard 3.5mm headphone jack can play music through external headphones. There is a high-quality MEMS silicon microphone at the left and right corners of the board, which can record in stereo.

User Manual

Boxs-Intelligent Speech

Environment Installation

Install TogetherROS

sudo apt update
sudo apt install tros

Check whether TogetherROS is successfully installed.

ls /opt/

Install the intelligent speech algorithm package.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install tros-hobot-audio

Get Start To Use

It is recommended to run the following commands as the super user, otherwise, an error may occur.

sudo su
#Enter the password

Test the hardware environment.

i2cdetect -r -y 0

Configure TogetherROS environment.

source /opt/tros/setup.bash

Copy the configuration files needed to run the example from the installation path of TogetherROS. (This step can be skipped if you copied it before.)

cp -r /opt/tros/lib/hobot_audio/config/ .

Load the audio driver, and it only needs to be loaded once after booting.

bash config/audio.sh

Booting.

ros2 launch hobot_audio hobot_audio.launch.py

Modify the voice input, just write in the corresponding position according to the format.

vim config/hrsc/cmd_word.json

Normal Recording And Playback

Hardware test.

sudo i2cdetect -r -y 0

Load driver audio codec and x3 audio framework driver.

sudo modprobe es7210
sudo modprobe es8156
sudo modprobe hobot-i2s-dma
sudo modprobe hobot-cpudai
sudo modprobe hobot-snd-7210 snd_card=5

Check if loading is successful.

ls /dev/snd

Recording:

#Collect the recording of the 4-channel microphone for 5 seconds:
sudo tinycap ./4chn_test.wav -D 0 -d 0 -c 4 -b 16 -r 48000 -p 512 -n 4 -t 5
#Collect the recording of the 2-channel microphone for 5 seconds:
sudo tinycap ./2chn_test.wav -D 0 -d 0 -c 2 -b 16 -r 48000 -p 512 -n 4 -t 5

Playing:

#Play 2-channel audio (direct playback of 4-channel recordings is not supported):
sudo tinyplay ./2chn_test.wav -D 0 -d 1

FAQ

Question:After powering on the system and using the sudo i2cdetect -r -y 0 command, the UU device will be detected at address 0x08, this is because the es8156 driver is loaded by default when the system powers on the system.

 Answer:

How to solve: uninstall the es8156 driver.

sudo rmmod es8156
