I'd be curious to see a list of appropriate sensors and boards.

It would keep the device small, cheaper, and compatible with many systems that already have a headphone output. But there's probably small and cheap usb headphone amplifier modules that could be integrated. > I am sure it can be used with ambisonics.xyz too, but is that site > dead ? It's http://ambisonic.xyz/ (without a s).
