Welcome to victor. This is the home of the Anki Vector robot's source code. Original README: README-orig.md

Branch Info

This branch uses the Snowboy wake-word engine. It's reasonably fast and accurate.

The wake-word is still "hey vector".

Building (Linux)

  • Prereqs: Make sure you have docker and git-lfs installed.
  1. Clone the repo and cd into it:
cd ~
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/kercre123/victor -b snowboy
cd victor
git lfs install
git lfs pull
  1. Make sure you can run Docker as a normal user. This will probably involve:
sudo groupadd docker
sudo gpasswd -a $USER docker
newgrp docker
sudo chown root:docker /var/run/docker.sock
sudo chmod 660 /var/run/docker.sock
  1. Run the build script:
cd ~/victor
./wire/build-d.sh
  1. It should just work! The output will be in ./_build/vicos/Release/

Building (Intel macOS)

  • Prereqs: Make sure you have brew installed.
    • Then: brew install pyenv git-lfs ccache
  1. Clone the repo and cd into it:
cd ~
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/kercre123/victor -b snowboy
cd victor
git lfs install
git lfs pull
  1. Set up Python 2:
pyenv install 2.7.18
pyenv init
  • Add the following to both ~/.zshrc and ~/.zprofile:
export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"
[[ -d $PYENV_ROOT/bin ]] && export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(pyenv init -)"
pyenv shell 2.7.18
  1. Run the build script:
cd ~/victor
./wire/build.sh
  1. It should just work! The output will be in ./_build/vicos/Release/

Deploying

  1. Echo your robot's IP address to robot_ip.txt (in the root of the victor repo):
echo 192.168.1.150 > robot_ip.txt

  1. Copy your bot's SSH key to a file called robot_sshkey in the root of this repo.

  2. Run:

# Linux
./wire/deploy-d.sh

# macOS
./wire/deploy.sh
