Let’s say I have a Mycroft Mark I that I pulled out of a closet in 2026. What can I do with it? 🤔 (I also have a Home Assistant server and a couple of Home Assistant Voice Preview Editions…) #HomeAssistant #Mycroft #MycroftMarkI #MycroftAI

@andy_warb I'd suggest this has already happened(ish).

Unifi G4/G5 cameras have onboard video processing, so the #HomeAssistant integration gets events, not just raw video. 10 years ago I was processing analogue video on a server - now in-camera.

The Voice Preview Edition has onboard wake-word detection hardware, whereas the #MycroftMarkI did this in software on a #raspberrypi

Today for (fast) local STT/TTS, you need a TPU/GPU today, but you can see the path ahead (like Coral TPUs in a NAS).
