Build your own Raspberry Pi smart speaker with Google Assistant!

Experiment with Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence by building your own hackable speech recognition system using the Google assistant - or add speech recognition and processing to an existing Pi project!

This is a great gift idea to give an existing Raspberry Pi user a new fun project to try - or anyone who is curious about machine learning and voice recognition. No soldering required!

Everything you need (almost!) in one box!

This kit includes everything you need (minus a power supply) - including a Raspberry Pi Zero WH, speaker, Voice Bonnet HAT (with microphone), pre-loaded micro SD card, cardboard frame/box, pushbutton and more!

100% Hackable!

In true DIY fashion, you build the project and enclosure yourself using the kit parts, then follow the guides to code your smart speaker. Once it's up and running, change the code, connect other services, add other hardware and make it yours - it's completely hackable!

Python ready!

Google provides a Python API for using the speech services and interfacing with the Voice Bonnet, which has some additional useful interfaces for your projects (PWM etc)

AIY Voice Kit v2 (includes Raspberry Pi Zero WH) [discontinued]

Yes, only two stars. I spent one month buying cables and accessories, trying to connect the box. Sometimes I bought wrong ones because it was not clear what you should buy and why. For example, I had to buy keyboard just to enter password and never used it again. This is wasteful. It would be beneficial if connectors to a laptop or PC were included. They only cost 5 GBP, but would make a lot of difference to a user. The box is made of the cheapest materials. It costs 46 GBP, pi zero costs 11 GBP, speaker costs 5, sd card - 2. What is the rest of the price for? Cardboard box? I had to etch programming 3 times, it was giving me the error. python voice_recorder.py gave me an error. Lots of unnecessary issues at every step. Overall a nice product, but overpriced and underthought. Surprised to see Google name on this.

This I a great kit for all ages but you would need an adult to help with the software. I like the fact that it gives you easy access to the spare GPIO pins that the hat doesn't use so that you can easily integrate it into a project.
