AutoVoice Autovoice for chrome doesn't always understand me.

Hi,

I am wanted to use some voice commands, such as "lights on", "lights off", "bus schedules", "dim the lights", "play music", "stop playing" on my chrome in the desktop computer (eventually, I plan to do it on raspberry pi to automate my house, if this is even possible). However I notice that the commands which work almost perfectly with autovoice on my samsung s7 edge with google now are very rarely recognized by autovoice for chrome. Do you have any suggestions as to how to change this? Is there maybe a way to "teach" the extention which commands I will be using so it knows what it should be looking for? Or maybe this is an issue with my mic (it's quite a cheap mic I bought). Would be very grateful for some suggestions. Thanks.

 

For instance when I say "lights on" it recognizes "light on", "lifetime", "life" and so on. Really, every time something else. When I say schedules it recognizes "mp3" (?). But I have figured out that when I put the mic close to my face, basically swallowing it, it understands me better, so this may be a mic issue. What type of mike are you using for this? Could it be working if I were giving the command from 5 meters away (supposed I purchased a better mike?)?
By the way, I love all your apps, many thanks!

 

Thanks! I'll give it a try.
Just one more question - is it possible to use autovoice on raspberry pi?

 

Yes, with the chrome extension. I am not sure if it is possible to install chrome on Pi though.
