Device Automation with Hexiwear Echo Dot

Team Members : Lai-Kuei Hsueh, Amanvir Singh Sidana, Rahul Dutta Choudhury


Overview

This project demonstrates the use of Hexiwear, Mbed and Amazon Echo Dot for IoT applications. The Echo Dot is used for selecting the device that needs to be controlled and Hexiwear is used for controlling the device. Three devices have been used namely, a music player, LED and motor.

Description

Communication between Echo Dot and MBED

Amazon Echo Dot is used to select the device to be controlled. First, we enter the Smart Device Skill App created by us and then we set the device to be controlled using voice commands. The Amazon Echo Server is configured to send a trigger signal to If This Then That (IFTTT) app's server. A python code which is running on a laptop continuously waits for signals from If This Then That server. When the trigger signal is received, it queries the required details from the server using HTTP GET POST functions. Then, according to the response, data is sent over serial to the mbed to set the device being controlled.

Communication between Hexiwear and MBED

Hexiwear's touch buttons and accelerometer have been used. When the user presses touch button, accelerometer readings are recorded and gesture value is computed. In this project, we use four gestures. Each gesture corresponds to a value which is uploaded to the wolksense cloud using Hexiwear App. For this Hexiwear App is installed on a smartphone and the phone is connected to Hexiwear. Also, the smartphone must be connected to the internet. The data is continuously monitored by a C# program running on a laptop. The C# program grabs the trigger input and sends it over serial to the mbed controller. The mbed then performs the required task according to the input received for the device which was set earlier using Echo dot.

Programming Echo Dot

This section explains how to set up an account on AWS, and get started with the coding the lambda function, intent schema and sample utterances required for this project. Following these exact steps should give the correct results.

Setting up Account on AWS

  • If you do not already have an account on AWS, go to Amazon Web Services and create an account.
  • Log in to the AWS Management Console and navigate to AWS Lambda.
  • Click the region drop-down in the upper-right corner of the console and select either US East (N. Virginia) or EU (Ireland). Note: Lambda functions for Alexa skills must be hosted in either the US East (N. Virginia) or EU (Ireland) region.
  • If you have no Lambda functions yet, click Get Started Now. Otherwise, click Create a Lambda Function.
  • To start with sample code in Node.js or Python, select one of the Alexa Skills Kit blueprints. For Node.js select a blank blueprint.
  • When prompted to configure triggers, click the box and select Alexa Skills Kit, then click Next.
  • The code in the 'Lambda Code' section at the end of the page should be used as the the the inline code:
  • Insert the following code in "Lambda Function Code" and "Configure Test Event" respectively:
  • Click Create function to save your new function.

Test Event

{
  "session": {
    "sessionId": "amzn1.echo-api.session.[unique-value-here]",

      "applicationId": "amzn1.ask.skill.[unique-value-here]"
    },
    "attributes": {},
    "user": {
      "userId": "amzn1.ask.account.[unique-value-here]"
    },
    "new": true
  },

    "requestId": "amzn1.echo-api.request.[unique-value-here]",

Setting up Intent Schema and Sample Utterances

  • Sign into the Amazon Developer portal to set up the intent schema and sample utterances for your lambda functuon code
  • Navigate to Alexa -> Alexa Skills Kit -> Add New Skill and follow the instructions
  • Following is the intent schema for this project

Intent Schema

{
  "intents": [
    {
      "intent": "MusicControlIntent"
    },
    {
      "intent": "MotorControlIntent"
    },
    {
      "intent": "LEDControlIntent"
    }
  ]
}

The 3 sample utterances given below were used for this project. However, adding new utterances with similar meanings will give a better range of commands to the user and make the code more robust

Sample Utterances

MusicControlIntent Open Music Control
MotorControlIntent Open Speed Control
LEDControlIntent Open Lights Control
  • In configuration, enter the ARN of your lambda function and select North America
  • The code can be checked in the Test section by typing the configured sample utterances.
