Anki Vector Amazon Alexa Upgrade Home Automation and Music

Vector needs more utility so today Anki Vector gets an upgrade with the Amazon Alexa AI. After some deliberation, I decided to give Vector the Amazon Alexa Upgrade this should provide Vector the ability to perform Home Automation controls and give Vector a more functionality.

In this Video, you will see the steps to perform the upgrade so if you have been thinking about upgrading Vector but still have question's this video is set to give you the information you may need to do so.

Alexa is the Amazon AI used in all it's Echo product line. It is also licensed out to third-party producers of consumer products to give them the utilities to perform Home Automation and other Smart Home Controls.

Alexa works with many Smart Home products on the market in today's such as Phillips Hue, Smart Life, Nest, IHC Broadlink, Harmony Hub and Netgear to name a few.

Upgrading Anki Vector with the Alexa AI will give Vector almost all the abilities that the Amazon Alexa supports today.

There are some Alexa features Vector will not support like playing songs from streaming music services via Spotify, SiriusXM, Pandora, etc. But we'd rather you connect your tunes to an external smart speaker so Vector can show off his dance moves
