Desktop Assistant - An ultimate desktop assistant that makes your life easier by automating some mundane, daily tasks. It's an AI without any algorithm.

• starts some applications
• automatically joins ZOOM meetings
• reports latest news and weather
• runs games namely, Guess the number and Snake Water Gun on the console
• has speech recognition property which enables user to look up in the internet
• can change the robotic voice from male's voice to female's voice
• informs the magnitude of confirmed cases of Covid-19 of the country asked (and of India by default)
• initiates timer and stopwatch
• can send as well as read emails
• kicks off screen recording when asked through Icecream screen recorder
• automatically displays images from web browser when asked to do so

NOTE: Provide URLs and application paths for the repective sites/apps to run this program. Also find the dependencies for this program below. Zoom and IceCream Screen Recorder are required to perform two of the above tasks.

External Modules required:

• pyttsx3 --> For speaking ability.
• SpeechRecognition --> For listening ability.
• wikipedia --> To search through the wikipedia for the query.
• pyautogui --> For controlling the GUI.
• pyaudio --> Dependency for speech recognition module.

To install all the dependencies at once, execute:

pip install -r requirements.txt

I've imported some of the functions/classes from my own python scripts. These scripts are:

• news_reporter
• weather_monitor
• snake_water_gun
• guess_number
• spammer

Make sure you place these scripts in the same working directory as of this one.

1. If you are unable to install pyaudio, type the following commands:

pip install pipwin

pipwin install pyaudio

It should work now.
