The Google AIY Voice kit allows you to build a natural language recognizer using a Raspberry Pi 3. The kit includes the Voice HAT, a very hackable component which will allow you to not only build your own version of a Google Home device but can also be used to interface with external devices and create your own voice-controlled projects.
In this first of three article about hacking the Google AIY Voice Kit we will build the device and test it out.
Here’s a quick tip for soldering a 40-pin GPIO connector to a Raspberry Pi Zero or Zero W. While it’s not a difficult solder job the problem many folks have is getting everything aligned and held together while you do the soldering.
In this article I’ll show you a trick I use to make this job a lot easier. And unlike some other methods this one won’t sacrifice a solderless breadboard
So warm up the soldering iron and get ready to add a GPIO header to your Pi Zero!
You’ve probably heard of the Raspberry Pi, it’s an inexpensive single-board computer that can be used for just about anything. But what exactly do you get when you purchase a Raspberry Pi?
If you’re curious about the Raspberry Pi then hopefully this article should shed some light. I’ll explain exactly what a Raspberry Pi is, how you can obtain one, what extra items you’ll need in order to get it working and finally what you can do with it once you get it up and running.
