In this video we will be having a closer look at voice assistant, voice command, voice recognition or however you want to call it. Now my girlfriend uses such voice commands to control our smart home devices. Only problem is that Alexa is not always reliable. That is why I will be exploring alternatives in this video and hopefully end up with something even better ;-) Let's get started!
