This may be a way to do what you described with a $20
speaker phone and no phone modifications:
Using the speaker phone dial-in to a conference room on the
asterisk
Then whenever anyone wants to call this extension, you can
route their call to the conf room and they can have a two-way
conversation.
Possible Downsides:
* if call from the conference room gets terminated for
any reason, then it will have to be re-established manually.
* resources consumed to keep conference room open and call
always active
Possible Advantages:
* phone only in auto-answer when you put it in that
mode
* phone usable to make and receive normal calls

There is an auto-answer speakerphone that might do what you
described:

I've looked around and found previous discussion about this,
but so far I have not seen any answers that really solve this
problem.
I'd like to integrate an intercom system into Asterisk so
that users could dial an extension, the phone on the other end would emit a
beep, and then the speakerphone would activate letting two people have a
conversation without the person at the extension picking up the phone.
This is a huge benefit for an office/warehouse environment.
I know
that this can be programmed with certain Cisco phones (set to autoanswer),
but my problem is that the phones that I want to do this with are down in
our warehouse and I think the Cisco phones would be stolen quickly. I've
also thought about a writing a software solution with microphone and a set
of speakers, but, again, the computers would probably end up getting
stolen.
A $20 analog speaker phone would work great if I could wire
the speaker phone to pick up the line automatically on ring and then hang up
the line on disconnect. Anyone know how to change the wiring to get it to
work?
