Voice control question

@dogfeet said in Voice control question:

hello-lucy looks like a great starting place. thorough explanation of how to integrate voice control into other modules. but it’s like you say, only preset commands.

the closest i could find to live searches is this guy’s project, https://medium.com/zenturtle/building-an-intelligent-voice-controlled-mirror-2edbc7d62c9e . he has it displaying wikipedia and wolfram info on command. but it looks like he has that data coming from an a local server and displaying on the mirror, so not really feasible if i’m giving the mirror away.

i think it just isn’t possible to ask the mirror to show me a picture of a giraffe, or to play me some led zeppelin or something. i had just assumed from the start that there would be such a module, it seems the natural progression of the project given the newfound popularity of devices like google home or amazon echo that do similar things without a display.

the mirror-mirror-on-the-wall module does indicate youtube functionality in the description, but i get jammed up on the credit card thing. i feel like i’m so close to the ideal solution i can taste it.

Well yeah you would think that would be the natural progression as many have thought but… then there’s reality. No one seems interested in going that route…which makes no sense to me.

ya really this is true , the voice recognition in general is a very deep field okay this is frst , n secondly n as my knowledge to make a voice controll with magic mirror untill now you must past with intents n intities n so on …n that will keep ur commands very limited untill you get bored , or u ll past through google assistant or alexa or or any other voice assistant but its only voice …anyway , i have a lot 2 talk about this …

I will get my microphone During this Week And then will Start To Look into a combination of Magic Mirror And snips

Snips seems To Be pretty Nice because
They allow offline sprechen recognition (I just don’t like big tech companies to Listen To me)
And in Addition Support more complex commands aswell
They use MQTT As Communication which should Be possible To Integrator into MagicMirror with The MQTT module quite easily

that sounds promising. displaying wiki info, google image searches, and youtube videos would add so much functionality. your kid could ask the mirror for a picture of snow white, you could ask it what an echidna looks like, you could tell it to play the beatles and go clean the house to some music, you could ask it albert eistein’s bio from wikipedia and it would display it. i would use that stuff all the time, and the show-off factor would be through the roof.

Hi,
You can give a try to Kalliope.

The module is here: https://github.com/kalliope-project/MMM-kalliope

Kalliope is a free and open source assistant with self hosted STT and TTS.

Have fun !

@Krato5 I will receive the mic tomorrow, so will probably start testing around with it on weekend

Since they released a German version of the Automated speech recognition I will probably especially use this one.
Although it obviously still has far more problems than the english one (especiall with ä, ö, ü), but I am in their official discord channel and they seem to work on fixes right now

And still searching for the stuff I will use to build my first mirror aswell ^^

@sispheor Youre awesome bro keep going i wanna give it try :D !! @maxbachmann youre next ;)

maxbachmann · Feb 20, 2018, 9:50 PM

@Krato5 I am super excited to see how it works

Might need a few days to get into it as I neither used Python nor java script yet ;)
Still only C/C++ until now
