Hey Sid, could you help me setup Google Assistant on my pi 3 using a Bluetooth microphone?? can't seem to find a tutorial anywhere....I would appreciate if u could give me some hints....

The internal functions which work with Ok google like , set a timer, set volume to 70%, set an alarm, etc. Don't work in custom wakeword?

Can the popping sound be eliminated in the pi zero ? I read this is a common issue when running assistant on that board due to its specs.

Hi Sid's, the snowboy files not more present in GitHub... :( How can change hotword "OK Google" to my personal hotword?

One More Thing does all of those tutorials works with your ISO? like Headless starting.

Hey sid, firstly thanks for your efforts you put in.Hats off! I've been facing an error while starting the service after demo Getting the error Dynamic module does not define init function (init_snowboydetect) Would be really helpful if you looked into the issue... Thanks

Hi sir, Everything is working good but after 3 tries it stops in between . It detect the hotword but can't respond .what would the solution??

hey Sid, i followed all the tutorial and docs, it works perfect. only snowboy is not available anymore and picovoice it's only trial....do u know any other way to create a new custom wakework model?

Hello: Again Do I need to go to your other videos to download files then come back to to this video and download the files on github, the reason i ask is you reference your other videos and i'm not sure. I am not trying to be difficult i'm just trying to understand the steps. Please be patient with my noobism Im just trying to learn. Thank You For Your Time

hi Sid, my google assistant is working properly but only for 4 to 5 questions after that no response and i have to restart my raspberry pi 3 to work please help me.

Seems like Snowboy is no longer in use, kindly let me know any alternative method to make the custom wake word

Hey Sid, I cannot find the wakeword implementation any more...is it no longer available? :)

very very good Are you using 2 assistant, google and alexa ? customizing words key with snowboy? off or online internet? thanks

Hi,Sid can you please make a video in which you show the step by step installation of this program please make it as soon as possible

Hey Sid, can you make a full tutorial for controlling GPIO.

Unable to use custom wake word..i followed the instructions still its not working

How can you monitor what google assistant is hearing (like in the demo) after you set up autoboot? Also the beginning of the audio cuts out whenever google responds. Anybody have a fix for that?

hey i had some questions , what does the assisstant do when u ask to play a youtube video? I am quite sure it wont work but i would love to get it to work since i am working on a raspberry pi assistant with a GUI but have no real idea how to start this

Hi There is no Snowboy folder exist anymore... Please help

Hi Sid, I have an already working set up of Google Assistant, made following one of your previous tutorial. Can I simply "upgrade" (overwriting the GassistPi folder I guess) or should I start from scratch again? I only miss the multiple custom wake word part.

Hi Sid, I noticed when I give a same question to "Snowboy" wakeword and "Ok Google" wakeword, the assistant gave a different answer. For example, I say "Let's go!". Ok Google will say "I'm ready!", whilst snowboy will answer either "sorry, I can't help with that yet" or "here's matching video". The same thing if I ask question such as "Can we go now?" "Can you hear me now?"

Hello: Yes i'm a noob so that's why I have this question. exactly what do I need to download from github to get this to work there are a lot of files on there and i'm not sure which ones i need. I know for other people reading this (that know ) it sounds funny and it should be simple but im new and I don't have a clue what to download. I have a raspberry pi3 a usb mic and a 3.5 mm jack speaker. My goal is to have google on the pi with a custom wake word. I can follow the instructions but for the life of me I don't hear exactly what you say down load. If you don't respond I will understand, but i'm just trying to learn and the only way sometimes is ask questions, Remember there are no dumb questions only dumb answers. Thank You For your Time

Hi Sid, Thanks for updating to Python3 and adding the other bells and whistles. Just wondering if there was a reason you omitted "Radio 4" in the actions.py file. Asking because when I included Radio 4 in my list of stations I couldn't get Google Assistant to play Radio 4 (annoyingly, since it was mapped to BBC Radio 4, which I now have to call Radio 5).

HI can you make a video on wakeword or hey google for smart mirror waiting for your reply

Can you make a complete ISO of this upgrade..?

Hi, Sid, sorry one last question. It's not very clear to me how to add new hot word. When I create it on snowboy I get a .pmdl (because I guess it's a personal model) instead of the .umdl you used. When I add it to the snowboy.py file , in the model = ... section, snowboy keeps looping. I have to remove the added pmdl word in order to make it work. Am I missing anything?

hi thanx for the tutorial , but I'm new in this can you please make a tutorial step by step from the beginning to the end how you are doing this thanx I would like an explanation like for the beginners , I'm new to this

Im sorry for asking so many questions but I have another one when you talk about downloading a fresh copy RASPBIAN STRETCH are you talking about RASPBIAN STRETCH WITH DESKTOP or RASPBIAN STRETCH LTE and I don't need regular Raspbian right? THANKS AGAIN!!

Great project Sid! After my usual bumbleheaded mistakes/not following your instructions, this is working perfectly - and neatly integrated with another Pi 3 project run on the same machine. One thing I can't figure out though. In the main.py file it was easy to see where I could turn on a light to indicate the Assistant is listening -- and then turn it off. But in the snowboy.py file all I can do is turn on a light -- I can't see how to turn it off after a few seconds of no activity. Also, what is toggling pin 22 doing in the snowboy.py file in the detected() function?

I'm sorry for asking you this stupid question sir but pls help me...There are 3 jumper wires used for 3 led's in 23, 24 and 25 pin. But the 4th jumper wire you used....where does it connect...I have connected all the wires according to your video but it's still not working..pls tell me where to put the 4th wire?

I will do that. And concerning turning off of the google service Open the terminal and execute the following sudo systemctl disable gassistpi-ok-google.service if I decided to turn it back on will all I have to do is Open the terminal and execute the following sudo systemctl enable gassistpi-ok-google.service? And one last thing for now :-) Is the snowboy service google service? I meen when I turn off google service and keep snowboy will it still get answers from the internet to questions that a person asks except I can use my custom wake word?

I Sid, eventually I've finally discovered that the snowboy service seriously decreases the sound quality for me. Shutting down the service brings the voice loud and clear again. Do you have any idea on how to troubleshoot this issue?

Hi Sid, The keyword "Jarvis" does not work. Any idea ? I'd like to play a radio through de GA, which project do you recommend ? Thanks for your work, it's amazing !

Hello Sid, first let me thank you for all your work on this. I'm getting through all your instructions just fine at least until I enter the environment and start the google-assistant-demo. At that point I get "-bash: google-assistant-demo: command not found". Has this been removed somehow? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm hung up there. BTW, I started a fresh install onto a brand new Zero W.

Custom command doesn't work here

Hi Sid, this time I've tried to run your tutorial on a raspberry pi. I've just burned a fresh install of raspbian stretch, than followed your instructions.

Hi Sid, it's me again. After changing the microphone to USB sound card, everything was working fine. After couple of days did nothing, today I tried to turn on my Pi and suddenly, not sure what happened, it stops working. I tried to manually restart the gassistpi-ok-google.service and the snowboy.service but it immediately disappear. What could be wrong? I didn't get any error or whatsoever.

Hello Sid, I followed your GitHub instructions. I am using Raspberry Pi Zero W with GENERIC USB Sound card. From your Audio Config instructions I ran 3.3 & 3.4 but didn't work on my USB sound card but finally I added the following lines in my /etc/ asound.conf defaults.ctl.card 1 defaults.pcm.card 1 defaults.timer.card 1 Now the Audio and Mic does work. But when I trigger the Alexa or Snowboy voice command I get reply " Give me permission to help you". What permissions do I need to activate? Thanks

hi, Sid, i'm using custom wake work for activate. it is working perfectly but after calling 2-3 times, it will stop working. then i restart the device, it will work only for 2-3 times. can u please help me to resolve this issue ?

hello Sid, could I pay you to convert my Raspberry Pi to my wake word? regards. jonathan

Hi Sid, first, the google-assistant-demo and googlesamples-assistant-pushtotalk won't work until I changed the file .asoundrc to this code: pcm.!default { type asym capture.pcm "mic" playback.pcm "speaker" } pcm.mic { type plug slave { pcm "hw:1,0" } } pcm.speaker { type plug slave { pcm "hw:0,0" } } I'm using fresh and updated Raspbian Jessie 1.3 on Pi 3 with USB Mic and Jack. Second, once executed the "sudo systemctl start snowboy.service", I keep getting "starting snowboy" noise over and over. Only "ok google" works, others don't. What could be the problem?

Hey Sid, its all working great except the customs wake words. snowboy or alexa. I am using pi3 with the AIY hat? any thoughts?

Im sorry i'm lost already I started with fresh raspbian stretch desktop I downloaded the github zip file extracted it to the upper root pi folder then started doing the sudo commands I got to this and it stopped pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo chmod +x /home/pi/GassistPi/audio-drivers/USB-MIC-JACK/scripts/usb-mic-onboard-jack.sh chmod: cannot access '/home/pi/GassistPi/audio-drivers/USB-MIC-JACK/scripts/usb-mic-onboard-jack.sh': No such file or directory what did i do wrong?

Hi Sid, it's me again... I've noticed that the overall sound quality is lower than what I get following your previous tutorials. The voice of the assistant isn't very clear, there's a lot of crackles. Any suggestion?

Now its slowly starting to sink in how the google assistant works on a raspberry pi after talking with you and starting only half of google (just snowboy) I find google who I call kim does not have all of the smarts like she does with both of services running I find she can't answer a lot of general questions that she can answer with both services are running as well as timers and alarms. That's a pity because the sound is improved and I don't constantly have 2 services trying to answer questions slightly out of sink at the same time. o well I guess I Wanted my pi and eat it too get it :-) So to turn it back on I need to write sudo systemctl enable gassistpi-ok-google.service and then sudo systemctl start gassistpi-ok-google.service is this right? I know you have spent a lot of time with me and I do appreciate it. But you have taught me so much. and I know I only have learned a very small portion of what I need to know but it is a start. Thanks so Much

Why we don't get action.py.. I'm using your repository GassistPi but there are no files like action.py, status_monitor.py, etc. Why is it like that.. Where to put those commands like of ktinkerer.co.uk/list-mods-raspberry-pi-aiy-project/ in which each project is related to action.py and voice-recognizer-pi

I started everything over from the beginning but I'm still getting errors at activating the environment on my pi zero with a DAC headseat on. pi@raspberrypi:~ $ source env/bin/activate (env) pi@raspberrypi:~ $ googlesamples-assistant-pushtotalk INFO:root:Connecting to embeddedassistant.googleapis.com Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/pi/env/bin/googlesamples-assistant-pushtotalk", line 11, in sys.exit(main()) File "/home/pi/env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 722, in __call__ return self.main(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/pi/env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 697, in main rv = self.invoke(ctx) File "/home/pi/env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 895, in invoke return ctx.invoke(self.callback, **ctx.params) File "/home/pi/env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 535, in invoke return callback(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/pi/env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/googlesamples/assistant/grpc/pushtotalk.py", line 275, in main flush_size=audio_flush_size File "/home/pi/env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/googlesamples/assistant/grpc/audio_helpers.py", line 187, in __init__ blocksize=int(block_size/2), # blocksize is in number of frames.

Hi, I'm trying the GassistPi with 2 SPH0645 (learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-i2s-mems-microphone-breakout/raspberry-pi-wiring-and-test), the google voicekit (github aiyprojects-raspbian) works fine. But the snowboy.py cannot detect any wake words. Debug the GassistPi code, I saw the decoder got audio buffer normally, but RunDetection() always returns 0 github.com/shivasiddharth/GassistPi/blob/master/src/snowboydecoder.py#L162 . My ~/.asoundrc: github.com/nvl1109/aiyprojects-raspbian/blob/voicekit/scripts/asound.conf I try "rec t.wav", it runs but empty sound recorded. arecord works fine. Do you have any idea on my problem? Thanks.

How can i use this mods ktinkerer.co.uk/list-mods-raspberry-pi-aiy-project/ I don't have aiy voice kit...I'm using GassistPi

I'm sorry to tell you your video is what I need But your explanation is very bad if you can just start from the beginning how you make it (ex: for this project you need 1, 2, 3 -------- connecting the 1 to 2 like this ) and on the side of programing to be step by step I'm working to build a smart home I'm very new to programing to be more specific I don't know anything and I will really appreciate if you will make the tutorials more specific how to turn the light ON using voice commend on raspberry pi step by step I'm very sorry but I se that you have so many questions which is very hard to figure out how to change something ore how to add something when I don't know much about is gonna take you a little bit longer BUT is going to save a millions of viewers Time, Questions, and many other things and you can make multiple tutorials how to du a project , from the beguiling to the end and than-you for helping people like me (not very smart :) thanx

Fake that has Alex installed not Google or you would of changed it to something totally different
