Custom Voice-Controlled Assistant

Developing a custom voice assistant for specialized home and office tasks.

Technical Details

This project involved building a custom voice assistant using open-source tools like Mycroft. It runs on a Raspberry Pi and can control smart home devices, manage calendars, and interface with custom business applications. Wake-word detection and speech-to-text processing happen locally, while natural language understanding (NLU) is handled by a Rasa server. This provides a private and highly customizable alternative to commercial assistants.
