How to receive input and help from IoT Voice Assistants
I want to add voice support for an Android\iOS VR app I am working on. I am looking into Alexa/Google Home and/or Google Assistant/Siri. I have two questions:
With Google Assistant, the assistant window opens up when saying "Okay Google". This will be bad for viewing in VR. Is there a way to block this?
If number 1 is not possible, How do I set up Google Home / Alexa to sent commands to my app? I know that I need to set up a Web Service to receive the commands (on lambda or something else) but where does it send the parsed text to? Is there a recommended architecture for this. I need the user to be able to say things like help, stop and next and the android app on the phone should receive those commands.
Thanks in advance, AP
