How to Make an Amazon Echo / Alexa from a Raspberry Pi 3 UPDATE: Since this video was shot, the process has been updated to make it easier and faster. See easy version here: https://youtu.be/JNTuoOsXS1k This video was shot during my lunch hour at work with a few of my co-workers, mainly Steve Youngblood (@newbrew). We followed instructions from GitHub. This is a reality TV / documentary style semi-instructional video of us completing the project. We made many mistakes, but we also learned a lot along the way. This project took about 6 hours in total, even with mistakes and is split into 6 episodes representing the 6 days we worked on the project to completion. If you just want to see the completed project, skip to day 6. Update: Instructions that I followed in this video has now moved to: https://github.com/alexa/alexa-avs-sample-app/tree/79b7df7aaa4c5304446f59c0bd3ee2589b245115 Shorter/easier/updated instructions: https://github.com/amzn/alexa-avs-raspberry-pi/ Materials: Raspberry Pi 3 Starter Kit: http://amzn.to/26FQl46 USB microphone: http://amzn.to/1SCu7K5 3.5 mm jack speaker: http://amzn.to/1pU6nWp Keyboard: http://amzn.to/26FQtQV Mouse: http://amzn.to/1SCue8r Starring: Caroline Dunn and Steve Youngblood (@newbrew) https://twitter.com/newbrew Produced and Directed by: Caroline Dunn (@thecarolinedunn) https://twitter.com/thecarolinedunn
