Speech to Image Necklace

See images that maybe (?probably not?) correlate with what you are saying as you are saying it.

This project uses a Raspberry Pi Zero W Raspberry Pi 3, usb microphone, hyperpixel4 touchscreen display, google cloud speech recognition API, & google custom search API. Written in Javascript!

Setup:

1. first, check your arm chip: uname -m

2. install node.js & npm:

   if it doesn't say arm6, 🎊 yay! Installing node.js & npm is gonna be a breeze! ☮️

   curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo -E bash -
   sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
   node -v
   npm -v
   

   😠 if uname -m said arm6 (cuz you are using a Pi Zero W), i'm really sorry, you have to install node the following way and the app is probably not gonna work... :

   wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v8.11.4/node-v8.11.4.tar.gz
   tar xf node-v8.11.4-linux-armv6l.tar.xz
   node-v8.11.4-linux-armv6l/bin/node -v
   cd node-v8.11.4-linux-armv6l/
   sudo cp -R * /usr/local/
   export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
   node -v
   npm -v
   

3. git clone or copy over ssh to pi zero using scp:

   git clone https://github.com/traumverloren/speech-to-image-necklace.git

   OR

   scp -r speech-to-image-necklace pi@YOUR_PI_NAME_HERE.local:projects

4. install npm dependencies & SoX:

   cd speech-to-image-necklace
   sudo apt-get install sox libsox-fmt-all
   npm install
   

5. set up secret key files:

• for use of the google speech api, you'll need to create an account and include your own keys json file and name it thijs-vision.json

• for use of the custom search api, you'll need to set that up as well and include your API_KEY in the keys.js file.

• move both files over from your local machine to rpi:

  scp -r keys.js pi@YOUR_PI_NAME_HERE.local:projects/speech-to-image-necklace
  scp -r thijs-vision-keys.json pi@YOUR_PI_NAME_HERE.local:projects/speech-to-image-necklace
  

6. Install Hyperpixel4

git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/hyperpixel4
cd hyperpixel4
sudo ./install.sh

7. Turn on USB Mic: (skip to mid-Step 4) http://wiki.sunfounder.cc/index.php?title=To_use_USB_mini_microphone_on_Raspbian

Running:

On the raspberry pi (over ssh, preferably), run in project folder:

npm start or just node app.js
