VoiceControl module

[simonsays]

@alexyak @tyho I was able to get my sleep and wake up function to work using tyho’s code as well as able to find a way to turn the LED on. However, I cannot seem to turn it off once on. I am driving the switch with a gpio pin and transistor. It seems that after the pi executes the action, it wont listen for anything else. Example is if I tell it to turn the LED on, it does so. Then i say go to sleep, and it won’t. I go for the reboot and try again and start with the sleep command first. Then I try to turn the LED on and it won’t do that. Is there a way to have the function in tyho’s node_helper.js loop back again to the beginning? I feel like it get’s stuck once it executes a function. I also have an issue with the screen being yellow and zoomed in when i wake up the mirror after sleep. Don’t think it is a hardware issue, but I haven’t swapped HDMI cables yet.

For reference:

Code for modified node_helper.js:

socketNotificationReceived: function(notification) {
if (notification === “CONNECT”) {
clearTimeout(timer);
this.autosleep();
}
if (notification === ‘go_to_sleep’) {
exec(“/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -o”, null);
clearTimeout(timer);
=}
if (notification === ‘wake_up’) {
exec(“/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -p”, null);
exec(“/bin/fbset -depth 8 && /bin/fbset -depth 16 “, null);
exec(”/usr/bin/xrefresh”,null);
clearTimeout(timer);
this.autosleep();

}
if (notification === ‘lights_on’) {
exec(“echo ‘18’ > /sys/class/gpio/export”, null);
exec(“echo ‘out’ > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/direction”, null);
gpio.setup(‘sys’);
gpio.digitalWrite(18,1);
clearTimeout(timer);
}
if (notification === ‘lights_off’) {
exec(“echo ‘18’ > /sys/class/gpio/export”, null);
exec(“echo ‘out’ > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/direction”, null);
gpio.setup(‘sys’);
gpio.digitalWrite(18,0);
clearTimeout(timer);
}
},
autosleep: function(){
var self = this;
timer=setTimeout(function(){
exec(“/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -o”, null);
self.sendSocketNotification(“autosleep”, {});
}, 10601000);
}
});

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

maybe someone can help me… :-)

So far the musiccontroll works fine. Now I spent my time for a new project. I Copy the code from @tyho and save it as notification.js and node_helper.js. The I copy the code into my config file like he posted. Th two files I coppied into an new folder called notification, that I took under Modules. Then I train two Hotword for wake up and go sleeping an copy and paste the two pmdl files correctly. The Mirror stats fine and everything is working But the two Hotwords didn’t take their job.

It would be nice if you can extend the module with hide/show options:

 {
    keyword: "simpleMode",   // keyword 
    description: "Say 'Simple Mode' to switch to the simple UI.",
    file: "simpleMode.pmdl", // trained model file name
    message: false,   // Unused in this command. Can be omitted.
    show: "simple foo bar",  // Show these modules.
    hide: "advanced" // Hide these modules.
}

When activating this command, it shows all modules with de classes defined in the show variable. And it hides all modules defined in the hide variable.

When implementing this, make sure you use the Visibility Locking mechanism that will be introduced in version 2.1.0: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/241/2-1-0-api-revising-the-show-hide-mechanism/9

Hello again,

is it possible to post my log here?

Good evenning, morning,

I have now spent many hours to create @tyho notification module. And now it works.

Maybe the following can help someone, to…

If I say wake up the monito wake up but the the monitor picture was terrible and i had to reboot.

Now I have edit one line in the node_helper.js and everthing works fine. Here my changes:

if (notification === ‘wake_up’) {
exec(“/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -p”, null);
exec(“sudo /bin/chvt 6 && sudo /bin/chvt 7”, null);
clearTimeout(timer);
this.autosleep();

@alexyak great work on creating this module! This is the only voice module that works for me on MM2.

I was wondering if its possible to customize the sensitivity settings? On the snowboy website when training voice models it gives you this option when testing so wasn’t sure if that feature could also be added into the module itself. Right now with the default settings I need to speak very close to the mic for it to trigger the wake word.

Think i got mixed up with Amazon Echo, can someone tell me or is there a showcase of how advanced the voice module actually is?

Thanks.

Hi,
I’m quite new to this and trying hard to get voice control to work but upon starting and after properly installing I just get the following really long error. I hope you can help me fix this because I really like the module and snowboy as a speech recognition tool instead of some online offers.

Thanks in advance

@DevilRev
Well I “fixed” it by making the microphone (which is USB) devine nr 0 instead of 1 in ALSA, now the hotword detection works flawless BUT my speaker connected to the normal 3.5mm jack does not work anymore.
Pygame which I am using for audio output at another location of my Magic Mirror says there are no audio devices.

Is it possible for someone to make the audio used for the microphone with this module selectable? I really need that and can’t work around it.
