This project is for a retrofit of an old 1981 Cyberanimc Animatronic from Pizza Time Theatre, better known as Chuck E. Cheese's band. A Raspberry Pi was used with a custom circuit board to control the animatronic, adding voice recognition and AI capabilities. Features include:
- Wifi control through an HTML interface
- Voice recognition with wakeword detection
- Speech-to-text support
- Intent detection for pre-defined commands
- Integration with ChatGPT or DeepSeek
- Text-to-speech for offline mode or online mode with Elevenlabs for natural sounding speech
- Wireless gamepad support
- Wifi management, including access point mode (hotspot)
- MIDI support for animating new shows
