===============================================================================================

This project is dedicated to building a “Synthetic Human” which is
called Kenzy for which we have assigned the female gender pronoun of
“she”. She has visual face recognition
(`opencv/opencv <https://github.com/opencv/opencv>`__), speech
transcription (`coqui <https://github.com/coqui-ai>`__), and speech
synthesis (`festival <http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/>`__ or
`mimic3 <https://github.com/MycroftAI/mimic3>`__). Kenzy is written in
Python and is targeted primarily at the single board computer (SBC)
platforms like the `Raspberry Pi <https://www.raspberrypi.org/>`__.

Kenzy’s Architecture
--------------------

Kenzy’s architecture is divided into two main components: Containers and
Devices. The containers focus on communication between other containers
and devices are designed to control input and output operations. The
most important container is the Brain which is a special type of
container as it collects data and provides the skill engine for reacting
to inputs. While a Brain does support all the methods of a normal
container it is recommended to create a separate container to store all
your devices.

All options, configurations, and startup parameters are driven by the
configuration file saved to the following location:

.. code:: ~/.kenzy/config.json```

   ## Installation

   Kenzy is available through pip, but to use the built-in devices there are a few extra libraries you may require.  Please visit the [Basic Install](https://docs.kenzy.ai/en/latest/installation.basic/) page for more details.  

Install PIP (Python package manager) if not already installed
=============================================================

sudo apt-get -y install python3-pip

Install the required system packages
====================================

| sudo apt-get -y install
| python3-fann2
| python3-pyaudio
| python3-pyqt5
| python3-dev
| libespeak-ng1
| festival
| festvox-us-slt-hts
| libportaudio2
| portaudio19-dev
| libasound2-dev
| libatlas-base-dev
| cmake
| swig

Create your local environment and then activate it
==================================================

python3 -m venv /path/to/virtual/env –system-site-packages source
/path/to/virtual/env/bin/activate

Install the required build libraries
====================================

python3 -m pip install scikit-build

Install core required runtime libraries
=======================================

| python3 -m pip install urllib3
| requests
| netifaces
| padatious
| traceback

Install libraries for SpeakerDevice (Required only if using ``mimic3`` in place of festival)
============================================================================================

python3 -m pip install mycroft-mimic3-tts[all]

Install optional libraries for WatcherDevice
============================================

| python3 -m pip install opencv-contrib-python
| Pillow

Install optional libraries for KasaDevice
=========================================

| python3 -m pip install asyncio
| python-kasa

Install optional libraries for ListenerDevice
=============================================

| python3 -m pip install –upgrade numpy
| pyaudio
| webrtcvad
| stt

python3 -m pip install coqui-stt-module-manager # (For model management,
not required)

Install the kenzy module
========================

python3 -m pip install kenzy

::


   To start execute as follows:

python3 -m kenzy

::

   You can disable one or more of the built-in devices or containers with ```--disable-builtin-[speaker, watcher, listener, panels, brain, container]```.  Use the ```--help``` option for full listing of command line options including specifying a custom configuration file.

   __NOTE:__ The program will create/save a version of the configuration to ```~/.kenzy/config.json``` along with any other data elements it requires for operation.  The configuration file is fairly powerful and will allow you to add/remove devices and containers for custom configurations including 3rd party devices or custom skills.


   ## Troubleshooting: "Cannot find FANN libs"
   If you encounter an error trying to install the kenzy module on the Raspberry Pi then you may need to add a symlink to the library FANN library. This is due to a bug/miss in the "find_fann" function within the Python FANN2 library as it doesn't look for the ARM architecture out-of-the-box.  To fix it run the following:

   ### Raspberry Pi (ARM)

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libdoublefann.so.2
/usr/local/lib/libdoublefann.so

::


   ### Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (x86_64)

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdoublefann.so.2
/usr/local/lib/libdoublefann.so

::


   ## Enabling Speech-to-Text

   In order to enable Speech-to-Text (STT) you need to download a speech model.  You can use Coqui's model manager or use Kenzy to download one for you.  The easiest solution is likely the following command:

python3 -m kenzy –download-models \``\`

Web Control Panel
-----------------

If everything is working properly you should be able to point your
device to the web control panel running on the **Brain** engine to test
it out. The default URL is:

**»**\ http://localhost:8080/
