I Really like The functionality that comes with Alexa … However I Really hate To give out My Data to a company
So My Current Attempt Is a offline Voice recognition Called snips that Works pretty well for me (I use a 4mic Array And it can recognise what I say from a distance of 5m with background Music without any problems) in Basic in snips You can create own assistants pretty easily (for me one of The Main reasons to use it Is that The Automated Speech recognition Is Not only avaible in English but for example in German Aswell)
after recognising a intents it sends it via mqtt which You can acces with Most IOT devices or for MM2 there Is already a MQTT module

Well Thats My current Attempt
While I Really like that it I can “easily” use it for everything in My house And have German As language The big disadvantage Is obviously that it Is a Second software And so definetly Not Really a one Click installation Thats Really easy To use for every User that just wants The Thing To work without any hazzle

Lindau, Germany

yeah thats exactly what I mean :)

I thought I would center the monitor like you said, however I don’t know how settings for the touch frame are changed because using a 32’’ touch frame with a 31,5 inches screen in standard the touch should be a little bit off
Or do I miss something?

found a good monitor for myself which would be 31.5’’
Is there a easy way to map those 32’’ IR frames you use to this slightly smaller monitor?

@Krato5 Open for anything
I have enough stuff to do on my smarthome/magic mirror so always happy about any help ;)

@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

@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 ^^

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

Will give Snips a try when I get my microphone array. Seems like the just released ther German automated speech recognition a few days ago

Seems pretty easy in general (I guess the hardest thing will be talking to the modules since snips uses python and here it’s java script while I am usually only using c++ lmao)

Edit: Just realised there is already a mqtt module for MagicMirror2 that should make it quite a bit easier
