An Alexa enabled home assistant designed for people with special needs that need reminders for certain tasks.
I'd like to thank Ben Eagan over at http://www.cyber-omelette.com His blog had the tutorial I used to understand how to send a command from an Alexa skill over to the Raspberry Pi with his post here. http://www.cyber-omelette.com/2017/01/alexa-run-script.html
This is an extremely early version of the Alexa enabled personal assistant I've made for my daughter. There are a lot of features that I'd still like to add. This is very much an early work in progress by a hobbyist. For more information please check out the wiki.
Update 4/11/18 I'm actually in the middle of a long remake and rethink of this idea. I'm working on getting everything running with a Google AIY Voice kit with Alexa, and creating a full installer and setup program to simplify installation of everything for people that might need a device like this. Hopefully by the end of summer I'll have something made up that will be much easier for someone to build and install. (Hopefully I have enough free time)
Updated 12/30/17 Fixed some problems with the sample utterances.
Updated 12/23/17 Removed the need for Bash scripts by tying everything directly into the python script. Added the ability to switch between two schedules named Vacation and School via voice command.
