Converting an Amazon Echo into a Home Assistant Voice Assistant

I have been trying to convert a 2nd Generation Amazon Echo into a Voice Assistant for quite a while now and in this video I show what progress I've made and some of the issues with the project. If you want to build the Pi Zero Hat shown in the video all the Gerber, BOM and Pick and Place files needed for manufacture are in the Github repository linked below. Because of the issues with it I would recommend you only build it if you like problem solving and have the money to spare. It is unlikely to fit neatly into whatever project you think it will.
