Rasspberry Pi AI Assistant – Build your own AI friend! #piday #raspberrypi
A cute Pi friend from Adam Frydrych on Hackster.io. To acheive the compact size some hacking was required. Another unique feature is utilzing the PlayStation Eye for a cheap microphone array.
My AI assistant uses a similar approach to other, successful voice recognition systems (namely Rhasspy). In my case, however, the Raspberry Pi 4B runs a voice recognition software (called VOSK) locally and interfaces with a large language model hosted on one of my PCs through an OpenAI-compliant API endpoint (Ollama). Thanks to NordVPN’s Meshnet I can, and actually do, that from anywhere in the world.
