    Once we have a native / scalable (multi room / multi device) hardware option for voice with wake words these new features for phrases and such are going to be great.

    Other than the text to speech which I already use for announcements most of the speech stuff I am holding off on till I can full circle replace my Google Home Minis for basic commands.

      What is currently stopping you from replacing them with something like Willow and a few ESP32-S3-BOX’s?

        Waiting for end to end support in HA with easy setup. I have been tracking progress and rhasspy but want to wait for all the components to work end to end.

        I have 5 rooms with Google minis in them I want to be fairly sure about the hardware before I commit hundreds to it. I might get one to play with.

        Ya one of the things I am waiting for is to see if two way onvif cameras can be used as mic and speakers. It would let me kill two birds with one stone in common areas of the house.
