Pardner
An offline voice agent designed to run on Linux desktops.
If I can, I'll make this a thin configuration around mycroft. If I can't, I'll build it using lots of Mozilla goodness.
Targets
Here are a few sentences I'd like to work while sat at my computer.
- I'm starting work now
- I've finished work now
- "Read me the news"
- "Tell me the weather"
- "What's the time?"
- "Install the updates"
- "Go to sleep"
- "Wake up" (yeah, right :p)
- "Shutdown"
- "Yes officer" / "You are under arrest" ->
rm -rf ~/secrets
;) - "This is police brutality" -> webcam-on
- "I weigh 75kg today"
- "I ran 5 miles today"
- "I ate too much yesterday"
- "What's my fortune?"
- "Who's online?"
- "Is X online?"
- "Play some Enya"
- "Play some HARD ROCK"
- ...
A few work-related ideas
- "Open a new issue"
- "Close issue X"
- (Other GL chat integrations)
Jasper's idea of notification modules is also interesting. It would be nice for the computer to talk to me when there's an aurora coming in, or disk space is getting low.
It would be good to replace Gnome's notification sounds with TTS of the notification text.
Requirements
Pocketsphinx
- sphinxbase
- build-essential
- swig
- libpulse-dev
- pocketsphinx
- sphinxbase
- libpulse-dev
Building
TODO:
First, run make deps
. It will download the necessary dependencies into the
deps/ folder, compile them, and install the output into target/usr
. If you
already have an up-to-date pocketsphinx installed (I'm targeting 5-prealpha for
now), you can skip this step.
Running
Nothing to run yet!
Playground
target/usr/bin/pocketsphinx_continuous -inmic yes 2>/dev/null
(We'll probably want to use the shared libraries directly, eventually)
Recognition is atrocious, for me at least.
Similar in concept to Jasper or Mycroft, except:
- No support for online, third-party STT operators \o/ \o/ \o/ . o O ( what about accuracy? )
- Simple to install and run on desktop \o/ \o/ \o/ . o O ( Why would you want to do that? )
