    Yes, however we can't guarantee the quality of the recognition then. Using Hey Homey enabled us to create a much better 'acoustic model', because we have a lot of different people saying it. But if you're the only person using your custom trigger, it'll probably work just fine.

    Hi,
    What STT are you using to recognise the key phrase, can i use voxforge to create an acoustic model for Homey.

    Thanks

    Nope, we use sensory. Just just say your keyword three times and it's recorded.

    Watched "Chappie" yesterday, I liked it.
    So "Chappie" would also be a fun alternative!

    Question: can you give Homey 2 (multiple) names? I'm really thinking of going with JARVIS, but 2 syllables (thank you google translate) might get annoying quickly, so i would also like the option 'Hey J'

    just wondering :)

  • Fire69Fire69 Member

    'Hey J' is about the same as 2 syllables, isn't it? :?

    euh good point... i thought you would always need to say 'hey $name$'... but otherwise its still 1 win on syllables from 3 to 2 ;)

  • Fire69Fire69 Member

    If I remember correctly, you need to say the 'Hey' if you would change Homeys name to just 'Jarvis'.
    But renaming it to just 'J' would probably not give a very good recognition result, that's too short . :)

  • ericjanvanputtenericjanvanputten Member

    Then I will make it 'Jay' :) ;)

  • TheoDeKoningTheoDeKoning Member
    My voice is a little different now because of the flue. 
    Hopefully I would be able to restart the voice recognition later again if I have problems then.

    "Hey Shithead, turn down the lights"

    Hm. I think I should choose another name for Homey.
  • TheoDeKoningTheoDeKoning Member
    More and more I go for simply "Attentie Computer" (Dutch) / "Attention Computer" (English).
  • AthomeyAthomey Member
    @Emile: is it more accurate if you have a longer phrase? Or can I use "Fuck".  " Fuck, I want to watch Star Trek", "Fuck, I need more light in the livingroom" ?
  • EmileEmile Administrator, Athom
    A longer phrase will definitely have less false positives (where Homey triggers when you didn't say it).

    But still, our trigger (`OK Homey`, yes we've changed it from `Hey Homey`) will probably work best in all cases because it's customly designed.
