Google AIY voicekit


I found about the Google AIY voice kit on MagPi .It included a yellow button and a four daughter plug and a five wire plug , a voice hat , a microphone hat, tow stands to fit in the raspberry pi , the voice hat , and the speaker and two sets of cardboard.The only problem was that I couldn't find it anywhere online.

Then one day I found Pimoroni.It was available there.I bought it straight away.Thanks to their very expiditious service I received it in a few days.I was very enthusiastic.I unpacked it .I had to fit the voice hat onto my own raspberry Pi.Then I had to follow the well thought instructions to make the box over the raspberry Pi.Then I had to burn AIY image onto a micro sd card.Burning it wasn't difficult .The only problem was finding time to work on it.I thought about it and decided to do it on Saturday.

On Saturday morning I downloaded the apparatus onto the Raspberry Pi.I had to check the speaker and microphone .Then I had to enable a few different services.Then I had to check if the wifi is working.The instructions guide helped very much.It was explicit.At the end of the day I could make my AIY work exactly like the original google home .There are still many varieties of ways to make it better for example voice and face recognition etc.

Facts About Thames Barrier

                                    The Thames Barrier which was built in 1984, protects Central London from tidal surges in the North Sea.                                                         It protects 125 sq km or 48 sqm of Central London. The Thames barrier was built, because of the Thames flood in 1928. The Thames river flooding destroyed lots of properties and 14 people lost their lives in the flood. So, the Environmental Agency came up with the idea of the Thames Barrier and its construction started in 1974. It is predicted that even with heavy rainfall and rising tides due to climate change it will still be able to protect London from flooding until 2070. There are three positions of the Thames Barrier to let the river water...

Fun facts about Moon

The Moon is the only natural satellite of the Earth. A satellite is an object that is circling around a planet like an object or an asteroid. It is a theory that the moon was created , after a planet Mars sized asteroid collided with the Earth , which caused the debrie to bind and turn into the Moon . The orbit of the moon is an oval shape and not a circle .   That's why , when Moon comes closer to Earth due to it's oval orbit , "Supermoon " is observed.
