A LoxBerry Plugin providing a Kalliope installation for the LoxBerry. A LoxBerry is an easy to install Raspberry Pi intented for home automation.
A LoxBerry with this plugin can be used to voice control a Loxone Homeautomation. Be aware: Kalliope is an always-on speech assistant. Meaning the micro is used to catch a keyword (this step is local), commands spoken after the keyword are recorded and processed by Kalliope. In the default configuration the speech recognition is done by using cloud-services.
