A hands free Alexa module for the Magic Mirror, which is activated when you say 'Alexa'. At the moment, this only works for MacOS and Ubuntu. Raspberry Pi has experimental support, it works when I tried it, but please try yourself and let us know on Gitter!
Note: The text you see are subtitles only (as GIFs can't produce sound). This module does not include text
