Abstract
In this modern era, day to day life became smarter and interlinked with
technology. We already know some voice assistance like google, Siri. etc.
Now in our voice assistance system, it can act as a basic medical prescriber,
daily schedule reminder, note writer, calculator and a search tool. This
project works on voice input and give output through voice and displays the
text on the screen. The main agenda of our voice assistance makes people
smart and give instant and computed results. The voice assistance takes the
voice input through our microphone (Bluetooth and wired microphone) and
it converts our voice into computer understandable language gives the
required solutions and answers which are asked by the user. This assistance
connects with the world wide web to provide results that the user has
questioned. Natural Language Processing algorithm helps computer
machines to engage in communication using natural human language in
many forms.
Introduction
Today the development of artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can
organize a natural human-machine interaction (through voice,
communication, gestures, facial expressions, etc.) are gaining in
popularity. One of the most studied and popular was the direction of
interaction, based on the understanding of the machine by the machine
of the natural human language. It is no longer a human who learns to
communicate with a machine, but a machine learns to communicate
with a human, exploring his actions, habits, behaviour and trying to
become his personalized assistant.
Voice-based intelligent assistants need an invoking word or wake word
to activate the listener, followed by the command. We have so many
virtual assistants, such as Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa and Microsoft’s
Cortana, Google Assistance.
This project was started on the premise that there is a sufficient amount
of openly available data and information on the web that can be utilized
to build a virtual assistant that has access to making intelligent
decisions for routine user activities.

Literature Survey
This field of virtual assistants having speech recognition has seen some
major advancements or innovations. This is mainly because of its
demand in devices like smartwatches or fitness bands,
speakers,bluetooth earphones, mobile phones, laptop or desktop,
television, etc. Almost all the digital devices which are coming
nowadays are coming with voice assistants which help to control the
device with speech recognition only. A new set of techniques is being
developed constantly to improve the performance of voice automated
search. As the amount of data is increasing exponentially now known as
Big Data the best way to improve the results of virtual assistants is to
incorporate our assistants with machine learning and train our devices
according to their uses. Other major techniques that are equally
important are Artificial Intelligence, Internet Of Things, Big Data access
and management, etc.
Scope of the Project
The voice technology at unprecedented levels and business must remain up to
competition or risk missing out. And the consumers are embracing voice
technology. Users are using voice assistants to getting queries and they
fulfilling their needs in voice assistant to getting accuratea nswers.
Although the youngest customers who were survey (the 18 to 24
-year- old) embrace voice technology faster than their older peers, they are
more likely not use the voice assistants frequently . Its the 25 and 49 years
that use them and are significantly more likely to be declared power
users. The reason for going towards voice assistant it is significant AI
adaption is driving the move to voice technology and also additionally IOT
devices such as speakers and smart appliances are making voice assistant
very useful. It provides and it is not work only human commands but also it
is designed for give responses to the users on the basis of query being asked
or the words spoken by the user and it perform the opening tasks and
operations.
Hardware & Software Requirement
The software is designed to be light-weighted so that it doesn’t
be a burden on the machine running it. This system is being
build keeping in mind the generally available hardware and
software compatibility. Here are the minimum hardware and
software requirement for virtual assistant.
Hardware:
 Pentium-pro processor or later.
RAM 512MB or more.
Software:
Windows 7(32-bit) or above.
Python 2.7 or later
Chrome Driver
Selenium Web Automation
 SQLite
Advantages
Voice technology within your company can help to improve
your employees productivity as voice assistants can
remember important dates or deadlines, schedule
appointments and in general, keep the relevant information
updated. With integrating AI innovations and Deep
Learning, the voice assistants work without stopping.
Disadvantages
• Initial cost could outweigh savings. While it's possible to
make both time and cash savings using these virtual
assistant devices, they don't always come cheap. ...
• Security could be an issue.
• Voice recognition isn't perfect.
• A microphone in your home.
*Applications
• Enhances e-Commerce Marketing.
• Provides 24/7 Customer Support.
• Eradicates Language Barriers.
• Helps Streamline Operations.
• Saves Time by Automating Repetitive Tasks.
Future Scope
Voice assistants are the latest technological advance in consumer
electronics that are making their way into people’s lives. These
devices evidence the impressive development and capability of
artificial intelligence and present a tangible contrast to the depictions
of this technology in iconic films. With every tech behemoth such as
Amazon and Apple now having their own voice assistants, the odds
are very strong that these devices are here to say and will become
more prominent in daily life.
Conclusion
In this paper “Virtual Assistant Using Python” we discussed the design
and implementation of Digital Assistance. The project is built using open
source software modules with PyCharm community backing which can
accommodate any updates shortly. The modular nature of this project
makes it more flexible and easy to add additional features without
disturbing current system functionalities.
It not only works on human commands but also give responses to the user
based on the query being asked or the words spoken by the user such as
opening tasks and operations. It is greeting the user the way the user feels
more comfortable and feels free to interact with the voice assistant. The
application should also eliminate any kind of unnecessary manual work
required in the user life of performing every task. The entire system
works on the verbal input rather than the next one.
