Before get started, let's review what you'll need.
Raspberry Pi 3 (Recommended) or Pi 2 Model B (Supported).
- MATRIX Voice - Raspberry Pi does not have a built-in microphone, the MATRIX Voice has an 8 mic array - Buy MATRIX Voice.
- Micro-USB power adapter for Raspberry Pi.
- Micro SD Card (Minimum 8 GB) - An operating system is required to get started. You can download Raspbian Stretch and use the guides for Mac OS, Linux and Windows in the Raspberry Pi website.
- External Speaker with 3.5 mm audio cable.
- A USB Keyboard & Mouse, and an external HDMI Monitor - we also recommend having a USB keyboard and mouse as well as an HDMI monitor handy. You can also use the Raspberry Pi remotely, see this guide from Google.
- Internet connection (Ethernet or WiFi)
- (Optional) WiFi Wireless Adapter for Pi 2. Note: Pi 3 has built-in WiFi.
Once you have the Raspberry Pi with the SD Card inserted, the MATRIX Voice connected to it, power up the Raspberry Pi and open a terminal either in the Raspbian Desktop or just by ssh into it ( if you are you are using the Raspbian Lite version, in this case see guide on how to ssh here).
In order to allow the Google Assistant software to have access to MATRIX Voice microphones you need to first install:
# Add repo and key
curl https://apt.matrix.one/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://apt.matrix.one/raspbian $(lsb_release -sc) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/matrixlabs.list
# Update packages and install
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
# Installation MATRIX Pacakages
sudo apt install matrixio-creator-init
# Installation Kernel Packages
sudo apt-get -y install raspberrypi-kernel-headers raspberrypi-kernel git
# Reboot
sudo reboot
After rebooting go and clone, build, and install the kernel repository following this steps:
# Clone, build and install kernel modules
git clone https://github.com/matrix-io/matrixio-kernel-modules
cd matrixio-kernel-modules
make && make install
and finally:
# Adding kernel module
echo "matrixio-everloop" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
# Adding overlay
echo "dtoverlay=matrixio" | sudo tee -a /boot/config.txt
# reboot
sudo reboot
# Setting up the asoundrc file
cd ~/matrixio-kernel-modules
cp misc/asoundrc ~/.asoundrc
Run this command to record a 5 sec audio and play it back
cd ~/
arecord --duration 5 --rate 16000 --format S16_LE test.wav && aplay ./test.wav
You should hear the recorded audio, then setup is good and you can move forward.
In this step you will setup all the required software to finally run the Assistant. Make sure you are in the /home/pi directory before starting.
Follow the guides in the links below :
- Configure Google Developer Project
- Install the Google Assistant SDK and Sample Code
- Register the Device Model
git clone https://github.com/matrix-io/google-assistant-matrixio.git
cd google-assistant-matrixio/
Now you are ready. Just run the following line making sure you put your project id and device model id from previous steps :
~/google-assistant-matrixio/google-matrixio-assistant-hotword --project_id your-dev-project-id --device_model_id your-model-id
The output should be like this:
(env) pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ~/google-assistant-matrixio/google-matrixio-assistant-hotword --project_id your-dev-project-id --device_model_id your-model-id
device_model_id: your-model-id
device_id: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
