Grove - Speech Recognizer
The Grove speech recognizer is a module designed for application in the smart home, toy, robot or anything you would like to control with voice commands.
Overview
The board includes a Nuvoton ISD9160, a microphone, 1 SPI flash, 1 grove connector, 1 speaker connector and 1 led to show to your voice activity.
Nuvoton ISD9160 is (SoC) Chipcorder that based on Cortex™-M0, it provides performance and the energy efficiency needed for voice control applications. The microphone on grove-speech recognizer is Omni-directional.
This speech recognizer can recognize 22 commands including ‘start’, ‘stop’ and ‘Play music’. Every time it recognizes a command, it will return a value and the connected loudspeaker will repeat the command. This value can be used to control other devices like a motor or music player.
Note: The wake up word is “Hicell” (Pronounce it as one word). When it recognizes the awaken word the LED turns red and you can say the command word. If it recognize the command word, the LED will turn blue.
Note: The firmware of the module was wrote by the third party vendor, it’s not open source.

Just a simple and enjoyable autonomous greenhouse
Humans are animals and like all animals, we evolved in mostly outdoor conditions where the air is nice and fresh. But modern society keeps most of us indoors the vast majority of the time, which could have negative health effects. There are many potential hazards, including a lack of sunlight and psychological effects, but CO2 may pose a more tangible risk. To keep tabs on that risk within classrooms, a team from Polytech Sorbonne built this small CO2 monitor. This CO2 monitor performs two functions: it shows anyone nearby the CO2 levels in the area and it uploads that data over LoRaWAN to a central hub that can track the levels across many locations. A school could, for example, put one of these CO2 monitors in every classroom. An administrator could then see the CO2 levels in every room in real time, along with historical records. That would alert them to immediate dangers and to long term trends. At the heart of this CO2 monitor is an Arduino MKR WAN 1310 development board, which has built-in LoRa® connectivity. It uses a Seeed Studio Grove CO2, temperature, and humidity sensor to monitor local conditions. To keep power consumption to a minimum, the data displays on an e-ink screen and an Adafruit TPL5110 timer only wakes the device up every ten minutes for an update. Power comes from a lithium-ion battery pack, with a DFRobot solar charger topping up the juice. It uploads data through The Things Network to a PlatformIO web interface. An Edge Impulse machine learning model detects anomalies, so it can sound a warning even if nobody is watching. The enclosure is 3D-printable.
