Speech Recognition and Artificial Intelligence has rapidly advanced over the years.
This week, we ran an experiment to convert our robotic arm into a voice activated one. We were pleasantly surprised by the voice recognition accuracy and the voice quality of the online "Google Assistant". (The offline version sounded more robotic)
Making use of the Google AIY kit and a Raspberry PI, we also had some fun testing the intelligence and wit of the Google Assistant!
