Dragonfire
The open-source virtual assistant for Ubuntu based Linux distributions
Dragonfire is the open-source virtual assistant project for Ubuntu-based Linux distributions. Her main objective is to serve as a command and control interface to the helmet user. So that you will be able to give orders just by using your voice commands and your eye movements. That makes the helmet handsfree. We are planning to ship Dragonfire as a preinstalled software package on DragonOS Linux Distribution. DragonOS will be a Linux distribution specially designed for the helmet. It will contain various software packages for controlling the helmet. It will be the first of its kind. Dragonfire uses Mozilla DeepSpeech to understand your voice commands and Festival Speech Synthesis System to handle text-to-speech tasks. -

ILA - teachable voice assistant
ILA is a fully customizable and teachable voice assistant for Java
ILA stands for (kind of) intelligent, learning assistant and is a speech recognition system aka voice assistant very similar to Siri, Google Now and Cortana. ILA is fully customizable and you can teach her/him/it new things by yourself like executing system commands, opening web pages, programs and apps or just some basic conversation :-) ILA runs on Java und thus is compatible to Windows, Mac and Linux. It is designed to integrate with your home enviroment and for example build up your own, free and open Amazon Echo replacement ;-) Right now the key components of ILA are the open source speech recognition CMU Sphinx-4, Google (Speech Recognition/Text-To-Speech) and MaryTTS (Text-To-Speech). The goal is to make ILA completely free of Google by improving all aspects of the open source systems. Since version 3.3 users can also write own add-ons to extend ILA. ILA's successor is the SEPIA Framework: https://sepia-framework.github.io/ Hope you enjoy ILA - Florian -
