Kalliope update

Posted on 2017-10-21

Hello,

Quick blog post as I reinstall my Kalliope[1] setup that I quit for a while :)

1: https://kalliope-project.github.io

First, the good news is that i'm impressed by the amount of work the team as done! If you haven't tried it yet for a while, I suggest you retry it now :]

From what I've seen so far:

A lot of performance improvement has been done and now it is faster than ever on a raspberry pi! And also a lot of bug fixes too where done :)

New feature concerns hardware improvement:

LED
Mute button:
Sound sensibility (for the mic)

And lots of new features:

Player modularity: you can select your own player instead of default one
No voice via API: now, api call don't have to active audio response, so you can use kalliopé in a client / server configuration (very excited by that one !) :]
Kalliope memory: Awesome feature to store data in memory for later reuse ! (only temp memory though!)
New neurons has been developed too: * Neurotimer: So you can plan to launch other neuron at a specific time :) or even can use this to create a remember app via kalliopé (So my previous script is now useless) * MQTT neuron integration (as well as a signal to start a neuron via MQTT signal) * Mute neuron to pause kalliope from waking up

And other stuff too, check out the github page!

Now, I have started checking my neurons to see if they are still working. Google agenda[2], Repeat[3] and System status[4] are working fine.

Web scrapper[5] and all orders[6] ones seem to be broken though… I'll check that soon.

I haven't checked the other yet but I'll do it soon too :)

My TODOs:

Repair neurons
Test the Mobile app via the API
Repair my web app
Redo the Kalliope CLI
duckduckgo AI API neuron
