Picroft: Opensource Voice Assistant on Pi | Raspberry Pi #33

This video is all about the installation of Picroft on Raspberry Pi. Picroft is the OS based on Rasbian Lite and Mycroft installed on top of it. Mycroft is a digital voice assistant written mostly in Python. As Mycroft is opensource, this opens up a lot of potentials to add features. As pi does not come with any sort of audio input, I have used a Respeaker 2-MIC HAT from Seeedstudio. This works pretty fine. I have also added some python scripts to use the 3 RGB LEDs available on the HAT, to depict some visual feedback by interacting with the MessageBUS.

Quality video!

Thanks Vyshnav !!

[@mrjwojc1]

Thank you! That video helped me alot!!

[@mrjwojc1]

To follow up on this: Did you ever get the speaker output on the Voicehat to work? I'd really love to use my passive speaker because my case is pretty small.

[@WGLabz]

Sadly I tried but it did not work... So added another 6W amplifier with a speaker later on..

[@mrjwojc1]

@@WGLabz Alright, I did the same - at least it works that way :)

[@anythingcanhappen4939]

hi there, do you know how to connect picroft to wifi?

[@PobzebArmerding]

I don't know if this will help with the pi-hat speaker out issue but did you try supplying power to the pi-hat through the micro-usb port?

[@WGLabz]

Ya tried that but did not help!

[@denios36]
