Is there currently a way to have a virtual assistant that
can talk back to you and answer questions, etc, and have it
control the powerhome software? For example, if I say the
command "Jarvis wake up", then a virtual voice would say,
"yes?" or "say a command" and then I would reply by giving
Jarvis a command.

PowerHome can handle this with its VR and TTS support.

The problem is that VR in general is problematic. Most homes are not quiet enough for it to work well.

my cheap solution. I use to be a wedding dj so I had
an abundance of microphones. a few were wireless
so I just carry 1 with me and have 1 by my
nightstand. they are both hooked up to a cheap
microphone mixer that goes to my computer. that
way I can have the volumes set low so we can
understand me better. this is my favorite function
of power home. people always seem to get a kick
out of it and try to trick my computer. which is very
easy to do but when people speak clearly it works
well. I think next I will try to hook up some kind of
bluetooth to it next. justin idea from a cheapskate

Good thinking. BT mics seem to be the best way to go.
