This line about the software running on it seems to have a hint:
> Dragonfire is the open source virtual assistant project for Ubuntu based Linux distributions. She will serve to the user of the helmet as a command and control interface so that you will be even able to order physical operations just by your voice commands and your eye movements.
but yes, they could be a lot clearer...
On the other hand, the page looks to be a work in progress. The armour links go nowhere, and the armour repository has only one directory (though it seems like the intent is to have many).
It seems like they're building an opensource, cloudless Jarvis. I must say I do like the cloudless aspect.
- cnewey 9y agoI saw that, but there's no explanation of what the virtual assistant will do in context of the helmet (automate emails? terminal commands? maps and navigation? cowsay?). As for the rest of the armour links... I never understood the point of submitting something to HN that was barely more than a landing page. Just seems a bit misjudged, is all.
- oddsignals 9y agocowsay is definitely the killer app for this.
