I Am Using Talk Skill

How can I write a Python script to create jaw movements during speech delivery, and how do I use wake words to initiate the system with a voice command?

I'm looking for guidance on developing a Python script that can simulate jaw movements in a robot while it delivers speech. Additionally, I would like to understand how to implement wake words to activate the system using voice commands. Any advice on integrating these features using Synthiam ARC or related tools would be greatly appreciated.

  2. Set servo Parameters: Specify the servo port, minimum and maximum positions, and any other necessary parameters.
  3. Save the Configuration: Click Save to apply the settings.

Additional Tips

  • Adjust Delays: You may need to adjust the sleep delays in the move_jaw function to better sync the jaw movements with the speech.
  • Test and Iterate: Test the script and make adjustments to improve the synchronization and responsiveness of the jaw movements and wake word detection.

By following these steps, you can in Synthiam ARC to control jaw movements during speech. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to ask!

Yeah as the rest of the gang said, you don't need to write any code. Focus your code on making the robot do stuff. Robot skills take care of the challenging and mundane stuff like Talk servo v2. All you have to do is focus on what the robot is speaking, and focus your time on how the robot interacts with people. The Talk servo v2 will take care of moving the jaw for you.

The concept of ARC is to focus on the outcome, not the mundane and difficult functions that run in the background.:D
