I built an open-source, screen-free, storytelling toy for my nephew who uses a Yoto toy. My sister told me he talks to the stories sometimes and I thought it could be cool if he could actually talk to those characters in stories with AI mod

Many parents are concerned about sending their children's chat transcripts to the cloud and privacy is often the first thing that comes up when we talk about AI toys. So I built OpenToys so anyone with an ESP32 can create their own AI

I would highly recommend gemini 2.5 pro too for their speech quality. It's priced lower and the quality is top notch on their API. I made an implementation here in case you're interested https://www.github.com/akde

Pipecat is awesome! is it similar to what livekit provides? I think Realtime API adoption would be higher if it is offered on Arduino rather than ESP-IDF as the latter is not very beginner friendly. That was one of the main reasons I built
