Local Voice Assist: The Wyoming Stack on RK3588
Home Assistant’s voice stack splits into wake word, speech-to-text and intent handling. RK3588 has the headroom to keep all three local.
Three local stages
- microWakeWord for wake: enabled directly as an add-on with low CPU cost;
- Whisper for STT: the small model transcribes a sentence in 1-2 s on RK3588; Chinese accuracy is acceptable;
- Piper for replies: Chinese voices are limited but fine for weather and device status.
Nail the three high-frequency intents first (lights, temperature) before expanding the vocabulary — accuracy on those defines the experience.
