Voice Assistant for Home Assistant powered by the Snips Voice Platform
Voice Panel is a open source Voice Assistant for Home Assistant powered by the Snips Voice Platform. Snips provides a private, powerful, and customizable voice assistant technology that processes all language input on the device, nothing is ever sent to the cloud.
Voice Panel uses Snips to act as a voice interface for Home Assistant. At this time, you can control your alarm system, lights, windows, blinds, switches, check status, get the date/time, and retrieve the weather information. You initiate a conversation with Voice Panel by using speaking wake-word, “Hey, Snips”. Alternatively, you can use face detection to initiate a conversation simply by looking at the device.
Currently the application has a few limitations. The Snips Android SDK does not work as a satellite, all messages must be forwarded to Home Assistant using MQTT and speech is processed on the Android device using TTS. The Snips Android SDK does not support custom wake-words at this time. To initiate a conversation, you must say “Hey, Snips” or you can try the face detection wake-word feature which starts listening when the camera recognizes a face.
* Face activated wake-word (no need to say "Hey, Snips").
* Control Home Assistant components using voice commands ("Turn on the kitchen lights").
* Stream video, detect motion, detect faces, and read QR Codes.
* Support for MQTT Alarm Panel Control to control your alarm system.
* MQTT commands to remotely control the application (speak text, play audio, send notifications, alerts, etc.).
* Device sensor data reporting over MQTT (temperature, light, pressure, battery, etc.).
* MQTT Day/Night mode based on the sun value reported from Home Assistant.
* MQTT weather data to display weather reported from Home Assistant.

This is an early release, please report any issues using the project issues tracker located at https://github.com/thanksmister/voice-panel-android/issues.
