- It's so easy to add voice recognition into your next project. This video will show you two ways you can add Amazon Echo or the Alexa Voice Service to a Raspberry Pi.
In a later video I'll show you how to integrate it into something useful, for example: "Turn off the outside lights".

Found your channel while looking for AlexaPi examples. Subscribed at once! Great material, well explained and the gags are superb! Thanks and please keep the excellent work.
Thank you! Glad you like the channel.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and explaining everything in a manner that I could understand... Look forward to viewing and reading the rest of your material
+UlricWolfsheadKhan
Thanks! Great you're getting a lot out of it.
Sorry everyone. The gag wasn't as good as I had wanted it to be. MAL42's voice is waaaay too quiet and I rushed the editing.
Sigh.
Nah mate, I was laughing my head off .... my wife thinks I'm nuts ....
Richard T
Ha. Yup. So does mine.
I found it very funny!
It was great!!! Very funny!!
no way mate, it was funny! :)
LOLz at the opening gag... If you want a bit of informational fun, use the following string instead. sudo apt-get install upgrade -v This uses the verbose function and you get a lot more of a display when it's installing. While it isn't something the less geeky of us will appreciate, those of us who are ubergeeks will appreciate it. As a side note, one can also install Android and use the google app which works much the same way with far less manual configuration. For those who don't want to muck about with it, this is a decent alternative option.
Amazing Work!
You're awsome! Thanks for the tutorial!
+Jade Maxwell
Thanks!
Mick, did you get around to the automation part you eluded to in the video? If so, can you provide a link please?
"Weefee"? Cracks me up every time xP
Mick, I like your videos and have been following you for sometime now.
1. Was curious to know if Alexa could be trained to answer specific questions, as in, train it to answer specific questions related to a particular subject (with predefined answers)???
2. Also is there an open source alternative to Aexa Voice Service???
Thanks for that!
In answer to your questions:
1. The Alexa API is fairly extensive so you can get it to do a fair amount, but you won't be able to get it to do things like "If the outside lights are off, then turn the heater on.".... Yet... I understand that they are constantly updating the API, so who knows what will happen.
2. There are several commercial alternatives, (smartwatches.org/learn/amazon-echo-alternatives/), but there's also mycroft.ai/ which is an open source, (but closed hardware), platform and of course Google's home.google.com/
But I guess what you are looking for is this: arjo129.github.io/uSpeech/ which claims to have better speech recognition than Siri and doesn't require an Internet connection and runs on an Arduino UNO!
I plan on doing a video HOWTO on this soon.
Haven't seen that one before. Seems to be still in beta though, and only for windows at this stage.
Personally I'd like to have something that can run on an SBC without too much overhead. It makes it very portable then. Even better if it doesn't require an internet connection, but YMMV with the recognition quality.
But Jarvis does look promising.
hi , nice work .. I have question, I plan to use Alexa echo in my project to let it control a printer for blind student to print for them through Alexa voice request , how can I do this? is the Raspberry Pi will help me in this part of my project ?
Hi, do you think it would be possible run alexa on a pii and use a Bluetooth headset for audio and mic and use the call button a a push to talk button? Many thanks
Thanks for the video. I have a question. Is there any specific setup to discover devices in a home network. Whenever I try "Discover Devices", it comes with there are no devices found message. Any ideas ???
Mick, has anyone mentioned the incredible resemblance of your voice to HAL9000's?
+Brian Crane
Well funny you should say that...
I just watched 2001 last night ... Hahaha too funny!
+Richard T
Ha ha. I'm sure there was a subtle difference, did you pick it up?
Have you ever written Java for a Blu-Ray player? You know just any old Blu-Ray player (doesn't have to be a playstation3 or anything). I wonder what one can make those things do potemtially.
can you do home automation using voice order to that pi with alexa on it ? or we have to use amazon products !
Certainly. There’s a lot more options these days for voice AI.
Sooo... are you gonna show us how to turn on the outside lights with it this year?
+TheRangeControl
Hopefully yes! All depends on my Patreon voting schedule!
Thank you for this video!!! just a question, does it work worldwide or Pi+Alexa is restricted to the Amazon Echo Cloud (US, Canada and so on...)? Thank you for your answer!!!!
+Juan D
Hi Juan,
I live in Australia. So yes, it'll work, (or rather *should* work), anywhere in the world.
So is there anyway to make the the "Hey Alexa" work instead of a button?
+Mrcaffinebean
Yes, I would look at running a local voice to text app that would constantly scan for that phrase and once found would send the audio stream directly to AVS.
What audio dongle are you using? I'm searching for a dongle working with an android device (via usb). Any ideas?
I'm using a cheap USB dongle. No brand but uses the common CM108 chipset.
Thank you!
did you already do the following video? because i cant find it on your channel
+matrix bau
Yup it's here: ruclips.net/video/xFhSr5qIx2s/видео.html
that is actually the same video
What is Alexa programmed? Or have to program, I'll buy Alexa, I am in India, Alexa can be run in India
Hi, does anyone know how to make Alexa work everytime i plug the Pi without running the commands and getting tokens again?
Talk to the hand!
Hi sir, while installing "java" got an error that "./install-java8.sh: command not found" can you tell me the solution
and how to enter the iD in config
Did you enter the correct folder/directory?
If you are getting that error then you might not be in the correct directory.
Have a look at around 06:22 to see this.
As for the ID in the config file. You can use any editor. There will be a GUI text editor you can use if you aren't familiar with the console editors.
Do a house tour
+doongi2001
It really isn't that interesting, but I might do a tour of my workshop and studio.
My USB audio is not working with pi.Do you have any idea about that?
+Aman Kumar
Hmmm could be so many things. Depends if you have a supported USB audio device?
MickMake
Ya i have tested the USB Audio with my laptop and it is working.i think I am missing something in configuration setting of Respberry pi
I am not able to go through the 2nd terminal, it says build fail
I just ask SIRI
This looks way complex for simple folk like me
+leokimvideo
You could do it, mate!
A nice young chap at Jcar put me onto you, he explained to me there was this old guy doing how to stuff. Most of the stuff you look at is beyond my pea sized brain. I just hope the young ones work out that being interested in what you show is VERY important. Sadly the way this place is geared people would rather watch a pool full of Coca Cola than something where they make and learn stuff. There used to be a sweet spot on this place, it was back around 2009. But these days RUclips is a vastly different place. So twisted by advertising and BIG names sneaking into all sorts of videos. I wonder where GoPro would be without the advent of RUclips or Coke without a silly pool video.
Mate, there's so many things that anyone could do. I wake up in the middle of the night with ideas.
You could easily hack together something.
How about I come around and teach you how easy it is?
haha too funny!
How to make auto-start Alexa ,start Raspberry Pi after auto-start Alexa with wake word ,mean i plug DC in Raspberry Pi then start after sometime Auto ready Alexa with wake word. without type cmd
How I start Alexa with voice ? , example: I say "Alexa" , and Alexa wake up
U WOULD BE BETTER OFF WRITING UR OWN VOICE RECOGNITION THAN TRYING TO FOLLOW THIS
Holly crap how fast do you think we can type... Im assuming this is just one big gag...
Svensk? :)
Min farfars far kom till Australien för många år sedan. Så ... ja ... svenska.
hey man you going too fast and also it's complex to understand.....
Yup, this was one of my earlier videos, (almost at 200!). I’ve slowed down a lot more now.
