Re: HAL, Amazon Echo/Dot, SMS, and TV Control
Alexa is Amazon's cloud service. The Echo and Dot are the hardware to connect to it. The Dot is in the video because it has audio out whereas the Echo does not. If you google Amazon Alexa, there are several youtube videos and it can answer a lot of questions, control your home etc.
Denise is NextOS. She is actually a chatbot and has won many awards for the chat capability. HAL is in the background with Macros set, since Alexa doesn't allow such things. My program does nothing more than feed (speech to text) whatever comes out of the Dot into a microphone input, which then sends that to the Denise API to read it the text. Hope that helps. |
