Im interested if people are finding anything witha similar form factor to Alexa Shows or Lenovo smart clocks that can run Linux ?
Im particularly interested in something with a decent speaker, integrated camera and display. Ideally 12v DC or POE powered.
I’m also looking for self hosted apps with pushtotalk or Dropin features.
I know I could probably cobble something together but ideally something well formed but would be cool.
What are people’s thoughts / suggestions?
I also found this thing. Which has an interesting form factor but no idea what the underlying spec is banana-pi.org/web/index.php?to…
Along with some weird stuff on ebay
I kinda wish the #mycroft had been more successful … or someone else would have anotehr go.
I found the #Lenovo #smartclock which runs a version of #Android and has people tinkering with it xdaforums.com/t/xiaomi-mi-smar…

I think you can do push-to-talk/drop-in at least via tts using BroswerMods on home assistant, that would be one option.
@wildbus8979 Oh right you are talking about #texttospeach for # pushtotalk using Browser Mod smarthomescene.com/guides/brow… - For the UI interface. I was thinking more like making video call or sending a voice/video message.
I’d be interested to know this also. I’d love to have a similar device that isn’t constantly ‘phoning home’ to whatever company is selling it.
