Reworked "Big Mouth Billy Bass the Fish" the animatronic fish


Link

A clever network engineer re-programmed the animatronic Big Mouth Billy Bass the Fish; to tell the weather in San Antonio, Texas.

Jessie Carabajal explained that he updated the fish with a python script to detect the audio output stream and to trigger its mouth movement. The result was pretty good and Jessie attributes his influence for Billy Bass to Albert Armeas on Making animatronics useful with Alexa.

He should sell those on the internet with a single download for the weather area of your choice. Take it to work, and show it to new employees. He Joe, would you like to see my "Talking Weather Bass ?"

That is using the Alexa SDK on the back end. It is available for free. You can embed it in all kinds of things.

A fellow San Antonian! The dead pan on the bass makes it so damn funny!
