Show HN: I made a wearable AI assistant for $50. (Rabbit r1 analog)
Hi! I made OpenWearableAI - AI assistant/pendant assembled from widely available components. Here I shared how to do it yourself. Also it would be great to make it an opensource so that everyone can build and use it.
- rahimnathwani 3y agoIf you're like me and wondered why the USB sound card wasn't one of the commonly-available $1 ones, it's because this one includes: - a microphone (or perhaps two microphones?) - an amplifier (AP2068) to drive the speakers
- quickthrower2 3y agoVery neat. Just needs to connect to your home AI server now!
- 1g0rrr 3y agoThanks! It can be connected to phone’s wifi and be with you outside home. I use it this way.
- burrish 3y agoVery interesting I liked reading through the thread
- 1g0rrr 3y agoThanks a lot! It takes a lot of time and effort to write and rewrite it
- TIPSIO 3y agoAwesome... Especially cool seeing the memories in action. I do like how the Rewind folks do things though [1]. Wearables and AI have a way bigger future and potential than AR, IMO. Why would I want to strap a giant Apple Vision headset to my face all day when I could instead just have something like a 2000s Bluetooth phone headset with an AI super assistant? [2]. I think this also solves your other issue of privacy in responses. Right now it's essentially a phone on speaker. With an Internet connected GPT and some clever Actions/Commands, you can essentially replace your phone -- Internet searches, text, call, email, etc. My personal dream of an AI wearable is dead-simple: - just an ear piece to talk and listen with a slick camera on it for AI Vison [2] - until the tech gets better/faster/smaller, just make it a relay to wherever my cloud AI, phone AI, or self-managed custom AI lives. No need to wear actual compute right now. Make the device small and slick (cough, cough, Apple...). - 5G mobile band - Aggressive memories / basically 24/7 streaming vision. I want analysis ready before I even ask. Even if starting it's just a snapshot frequently. [1] https://www.rewind.ai https://www.rewind.ai.

- 1g0rrr 3y agoGood points, thanks a lot! Yes ear piece should be great. But how about using it with Apple or Android buds simultaneously?
- lee-rhapsody 3y ago>Why would I want to strap a giant Apple vision headset to my face all day when I could instead just have something like a 2000s Bluetooth phone headset with an AI super assistant? I don't really understand this. The Vision Pro and gadgets like the Rabbit R1 are completely different devices with completely different use cases.

- 7_hours_ago 3y agoI don't use twitter and can't seem to see your complete tweet without logging in, is there anywhere else where I can read this?
- 1g0rrr 3y agoI’ll share it at Medium. Thanks for mention this Twitter feature
- 7_hours_ago 3y agoI assume the case is 3D printed? Would you mind sharing the template file?
- croes 3y agoJust replace twitter.com with nitter.net in the url.
- 7_hours_ago 3y agoThat works, thanks!
