Choosing a satellite

A satellite is any device you talk to. All of them stream audio to the server over the Alabama protocol; pick the form factor that fits the room.

Satellite	Form factor	Wake word	Best for
Desktop	Pill overlay on your PC/Mac	Always-on	The machine you sit at
Android Kiosk	Wall-mounted tablet / Echo Show style	Always-on, with echo cancellation	Kitchen, living room
Android Companion	Your phone's assistant button	On-demand	On the go in the house
ESP32-S3	DIY hardware puck	Always-on	Cheap, everywhere

Every satellite page follows the same structure: what it is, how to install it, how it pairs with the server, and device-specific troubleshooting.
