This is a personal desktop assistant which will do few tasks for you. It is currently in LEVEL - 1 development process where the tasks which can be performed are limited and need manual coding for it instead of any automation.

• Ask time and day
• Ask to open google,brave,youtube,stack overflow
• take screenshot of current screen
• record your voice
• Open calender and look into the calender of any year you desire
• Generate a new password for you

The current code is very rigid and has fixed to perform particular task. Looking forward to improve the effectiveness of the assistant and automate it.

pip install speechRecognition 

• This module is used to access camera for capturing images.
  

pip install opencv-python 

• This library helps VIVA to speak ask which task to perform from the user.
  

pip install PyAudio 

• To make ASHWATHAMA take screenshots and save easily

pip install Pillow

In takeCommand() function r.pause_threshold is parameter to increase the time to wait for assistant so that if u take a small pause wantedly or unwantedly, the assistant should not stop listening and execute incomplete tasks. In short, the more the pause_threshold, the more time you can pause after a command is given.

Also, along with it another parameter is also used which is called r.energy_threshold, which decreases the sensitivity of its input with increase in its value. The more the energy_threshold the more you need to shout for giving the commands to USHVATHAMA.

• Automating VIVA as much as possible, training a model and integrating it with the code so that the rigidness in the commands can be eliminated and the assistant can respond to the commands accordingly even if phrased differently.
• Making the code understandable to any individual, make it robust in nature.
