In this chapter, we looked at how one can fairly easily construct an SBC-based infotainment system, using voice-to-text to construct a voice-driven user interface. We also looked at ways that we could extend it to add even more functionality.
The reader is expected to be able to implement a similar system at this point, and to extend it to connect it to online and network-based services. The reader should also read up on the implementation of more advanced voice-driven user interfaces, the addition of text-to-speech, and the use of A2DP-based Bluetooth devices.
In the next chapter, we'll be taking a look at how to implement a building-wide monitoring and control system using microcontrollers and the local network.
