Talk to Unity in Plain English

Talk to Unity is a single web page that acts like a friendly concierge. The landing screen double-checks that your browser has everything it needs (secure connection, microphone, speech tools). Once every light turns green, a voice assistant named Unity wakes up so you can talk out loud and hear it answer back.

What you need

• A recent version of Chrome, Edge, or Safari. (Firefox still lacks the speech tools we use.)
• A secure address — either https:// on the web or http://localhost while testing.
• Speakers or headphones so you can hear Unity talk.
• A microphone and permission to use it.

If any of these are missing, the landing page will highlight what to fix and share a short tip.

Fastest way to try it

1. Download the project or clone it with Git.

   git clone https://github.com/Unity-Lab-AI/Talk-to-Unity.git
   cd Talk-to-Unity

2. Start a basic web server. Python is an easy option:

   python -m http.server 8000

3. Open http://localhost:8000 in a supported browser and load index.html.
4. Watch the landing page run its checks. When everything shows Ready, press the button to enter the AI lab and start talking to Unity.

Understanding the landing page

• System lights: Secure context, speech recognition, speech playback, and microphone access each get a color. Green means you are good to go. Amber means you will see clear instructions to fix the problem.
• Status message: The box at the top always tells you what Unity is waiting on. When all lights are green it invites you into the lab.
• Help links: Quick links back to the Unity AI Lab website and this repository sit near the top so you can jump out for more info.

Using the voice assistant

1. Enter the lab once the landing checks pass.
2. Click Unmute microphone to let Unity listen.
3. Speak naturally. Unity will transcribe, respond with text, and also read its answer aloud.
4. Use the on-screen controls to mute, stop, or reset the conversation if you want to start over.

All of this runs in the browser — no extra servers or databases are required.

Customizing the experience

• Prompt and personality: Edit ai-instruct.txt to change Unity’s default instructions.
• Landing behavior: Adjust the readiness checks or UI copy inside landing.js.
• Voice interface: Modify AI/app.js for how Unity listens, thinks, and speaks.
• Styling: Tweak the look across the landing page and chat area in style.css and AI/style.css.
