Please don't say "this is far too complicated, go play outside" and stuff like that... really...
I believe I have 20% of the experience needed for the project (some level of c++ programming, having made lots of PCBs, analogue and digital). The most probable outcome is quitting, but still it's worth the try...
Now, the point:
I want to make a wireless headset (2 channels + stereo microphone, e.g. 2-way stereo.)
I want it to be as digital as it can.
What I propose:
An ARM processor with linux for ARM and connection to WiFi. It should be one of the ARM processors that work with the several linux for ARM distros. I still couldn't find how the sound framework is implemented in the ARM linux kernel... if there really is such support...
for WiFi I'd like to use a Wireless to Ethernet module and use the ethernet input of the ARM, as some models have one.
The high-level protocol idea:
The device captures a preconfigured PulseAudio RDP stream from a PC on the network and plays it while sending a similar RDP stream from it's microphones, preferably by pulseaudio installed in the linux. Then the PC receives this stream and uses it as a virtual stream, type "Input", with the ease of configuration of PulseAudio![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I am still searching for a suitable low-cost ARM, if you know one please say...
