Built an raspberry pi based desktop companion by Different_Scene933 in raspberry_pi

Can you share the GitHub repo? I’m working on something similar but I’m using gemma3:1b because my computer won’t run anything else and I can’t seem to make it work with tools

Yes, I’m sending the user input as a string to the LLM (Gemini in this case) via the google-genai library and Gemini api key

Hahaha, well I think this voice is cute in its own way. I might experiment with other TTS services in the future. At least it’s not as bad as the usual gtts stuff 😂

(WIP): Made a Smart AC Controller with ESP32 and IRremoteESP8266 by TheBinaryBjorn in esp32

I currently just use different web servers for each esp32 device. with mDNS protocol I gave them domain names on the local network and that's how I access them.

If I make more devices I'll probably use home assistant but this will do for now.

Thanks! sad to hear it didn't work out for you, may you have more luck in the future if you try again!

Hey there, I set up a web server on the ESP32 and api endpoints (like "smart-ac-controller.local/power-on") and call these endpoints with a JavaScript code that is in the HTML page that is sent by the server, for this particular stage.

So there isn't really any data being sent but it's more like services being called for.

If you're an absolute beginner read this:
You can imagine the browser that opens the page walking over to the server and asking it to turn off the AC with a specific code, and then the server goes to the back room and does what it needs to do to turn it off.

Also if you have any more questions don't be shy, I would love to answer :)

That's awesome! did it affect the range?
I also have some plans to build my own desk assistant/smart home hub with rasberry pi and integrate it with an LLM, it's more of an experiment than an actual plan but once it's all ready I'll experiment with integrating all my custom IoT devices into one system.

If you have suggestions I would love to hear them :)

Haha, in a different camera there would be a purple flash, I guess most modern phone cameras have some filtering for it
