# Gemini Voice Assistant
Gemini Voice Assistant is a voice-activated assistant powered by Google Gemini AI and Python's speech recognition library. It listens for voice commands and interacts with the Gemini API to provide responses.
## Features
- Voice recognition using `speech_recognition` library
- Text-to-speech capabilities using `pyttsx3` library
- Integration with Google Gemini AI for intelligent responses
- Configurable wake words and exit commands
- Customizable voice output settings
## Prerequisites
- Python 3.6 or higher
- Microphone (for voice input)
## Installation
1. **Clone the repository:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/arunishrajput/gemini-voice-assistant.git
cd gemini-voice-assistant
```
2. **Create a virtual environment and activate it (optional but recommended):**
- Create virtual environment:
```bash
python -m venv venv
```
- Activate virtual environment:
- For Windows:
```bash
venv\Scripts\activate
```
- For Linux/Mac:
```bash
source venv/bin/activate
```
3. **Install dependencies:**
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Or install the libraries manually:
```bash
pip install SpeechRecognition pyttsx3 google-generativeai
```
4. **Set up your Google Gemini API key:**
Replace `Gemini_API_Key` in the script with your actual [Google Gemini API key](https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey).
## Usage
1. **Run the script:**
```bash
python main.py
```
2. **Interact with the assistant:**
- Say the `wake word` (default is "gemini") to start sending responses to Gemini.
- Use `exit words` (default: "exit", "stop", "quit", "bye", "goodbye") to stop sending responses to Gemini.
## Configuration
- **Wake Word:** Set your desired wake word in the `wake_word` variable.
- **Exit Words:** Customize the exit words in the `exit_words` list.
- **Voice Settings:** Adjust the `rate`, `volume`, and `voice properties` in the pyttsx3 output voice customization section.
