Amazon Alexa for Raspberry Pi Zero Asterisk PBX

Overview

This project is a proof-of-concept using Asterisk PBX, running on a Raspberry Pi Zero or better, interfaced to Amazon Alexa™ Voice Service API.

Using a SIP Phone or SoftPhone, the user dials into their Raspberry Asterisk PBX extension and follows the prompts to speak questions which are sent to Amazon Alexa Voice Service. Responses are spoken back over the phone. No Amazon Echo™ required.

You can ask any question that Alexa Voice Service supports.

All you need is a Raspberry Zero (or better) and a SIP or Soft Phone.
