I am going to install a raspberry pi in my car soon, and one of the things it will do is serve as my radio.
Long story short i need a microphone to accept voice controls to scan through the radio channels, my present radio cannot auto scroll until it reaches a station, and while i drive should i desire to look through channels, or to go through my preset channels, would leave me dangerously distracted, so the solution would be to use four different voice controlls to either auto tune up or down, or go up or down through my preset channels.
Problem is my car is quite noisy as you would imagine, plus theres noice from the radio itself. the solution fortunately is quite simple. An extremely directional microphone which can block any noise other than what is spoken directly into it. i plan on mounting it on the non moving part of the steering wheel so i can speak loudly directly into it, (i dont care if its loud, so long as its clear).
so i ask, does anyone know where i may source some super directional microphones as which i want, prefferebly as a base component and not built into some studio quality mic that will cost me a considerable amount?
thankyou
