I was able to successfully cross-compile and run Julius Voice Recognition Engine on my Synology DS209.

I am working on trying to compile Festival w/ MBROLA engine in place of Flite for better TTS voices. I am also looking at Cepstral and AT&T Natural Voices.

Another good program to look at would be DomotiGa + Gambas for linux HA.

  1. Hi, did you tried to get Gambas crosscompiled? I'm the author of DomotiGa, and just bought an DS410, so will looking at it too. But there are a lot of dependencies, and have to do some reading on cross compiling for Synology.

  2. Can you be anywhere in the room and use voice control or you need to be near a microphone ?
    I have a similar setup but its more on remotely controlling lights and air condition. I added voice control too, I used sphinx4 but have to be near microphone for it to work which I don't like.

  3. Baby monitors are very sensitive and non-directional, so they would also pick up a lot of noise from the television or if you have your window open from the outside world...

  4. There are real benefits to having your automation controller and security system combined in one unit. You have the advantage of infra red detectors from the alarm system being available to perform/trigger automation tasks. You can also benefit from the alarm system knowing whether you’re at home or not

  6. The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.

  8. I recently hired the team at Pure Audio Video to install an automation system for my Miami office. Unlike other companies I’ve met, they are licensed and insured. I appreciated that the owners showed up with the installation team to ensure that the process went smoothly. Their expertise allowed them to provide exactly what I wanted. I recommend them to anyone wanting a home or office automation system. Visit them at www.pureaudiovideo.com or call (954)-581-4434.
