I have put together and have up and running a new case.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GLGCCLRR?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
This case came with a LCD/Mic/Speaker(s)/Cam all that connect to "hats" I was wondering if I could use the mic/cam/speakers that are built in and make them entities to use for home assiatant.

I think you are better off running a more standard distro, Then running HA in docker. This gives you the flexibility of a standard distro to easily run things to take advantage.

#

Use LVA to turn the mic/speakers into a VA. you can run something on the display output for the screen, I am not sure on the camera setup but maybe something to do with RTSP streaming?. The Hailo8... I have no idea really... depends on what you want to do I guess?

#

I hope your RPI is a high ram model...

Yes it is the 16gb. Thanks for the information. I do have plans to run ha from a docker, I have just heard somethings dont work right when you do. Scared of what might be with so much zigbe devices and running a usb dongle for it. I remember when I first setup HA YEARS ago the pi was the best way to. This case came up for me to review and I have spent past few hours trying to find some information in regards do using all the things this has maybe for HA.
