ABSTRACT
In this project, we aim to develop an
android based personal voice assistant
for automobiles. Inspiration for this
project is taken from virtual assistants
like siri, cortana, alexa, etc. This
application will be designed to provide a
user-friendly interface while driving. It will
be built to handle certain pre-defined
commands. User will be able to interact
with the system using verbal commands.
As a personal assistant, it will be
developed to assist user in tasks such as
making a call, searching on google,
weather updates and navigation. The
application will be connected to an
Application Programming Interface (API)
at the backend in order to provide
optimal solution.
OBJECTIVE
1)To setup android development software
tools and create a User Interface (UI) as
shown in layout in a new android studio
project.
2) To integrate Speech To Text (STT) API
with "speak" button shown in layout ,
upload the recorded input to Natural
Language Processing (NLP) API and
integrate Text To Speech (TTS) API in the
application.
3)To receive the output of NLP in TTS
and create android package of all the
components as a single package.
4)To perform manual testing and fine-
tune the performance of the application.
METHODOLOGY
1.Setup and layout: We need android studio for
creating an application. We also need an
android device to run our android application.
The device must have android version 5.0 or
above. The device must have a mic and
speaker for receiving user commands and
providing response to the user. Layout will be
created as shown in figure 2 It will consist of a
button to start recording command.\item
2.STT, NLP and TTS API: TTS API will provide
the text format of the voice command given by
user. This API will be integrated with the
application. NLP unit is responsible for deciding
the action for the text provided by speech to
text API. TTS API will convert the text reply
given by NLP to user understandable audio.
3.Implementation of model :We pass the output
of NLP to TTS for conversion to audio format.
We create an APK package for all the above

INTRODUCTION
In today’s era almost all tasks are
digitalized. We have Smartphone in hands
and it is nothing less than having world at
our finger tips. These days we aren’t even
using fingers. We just speak of the task and
it is done. There exist systems where we
can say Text Dad, “I’ll be late today.” and
the text is sent. That is the task of a Virtual
Assistant.
As the overall costs of vehicle ownership
and maintenance have been decreasing
day by day, more people have
started to drive their personal vehicle. Rise
of the Covid 19 pandemic has further
increased number of people using a
personal vehicle instead of public transport.
Thereby a larg number of people driving by
themselves has created a need for
personal assistant to perform other tasks
while the driver can pay attention on the
road.

PURPOSE
This Project provides a good practice
for drivers to keep their attention on
important controls and roads rather using
them for secondary tasks. The purpose
will be to provide such a facility in order to
reduce road mishaps happening due to
distracted drivers. The project also aims
to provide comfortable and safe
entertainment solution for drivers on long
distances. It will help people to perform
manual operations while driving a car.
This is one of the reasons why it has
been selected
as a project.

listed components.
4.Analysis of performance :we will perform
manual testing of the application by testing the
application on various devices. Evaluation will
be done by project guide, mentor and panel.
Conclusion
-Drivers can perform tasks using voice
commands instead of manually, so the
safety concern is minimized.
-Using this application, drivers have a
comfortable and inexpensive option
against rather expensive voice
assistants.
-No. of road accidents caused by
distracted drivers will decrease
Result:
Application has been developed
successfully
Testing procedures have been performed.
Although, more functionality can be added to
make user experience more comfortable
