I do have WIFI but my desk is pretty far from my router so the WIFI is a bit spotty where I am.
I’m considering using a WIFI hotspot on either my computer or phone.
Does anyone know how much data Emo generally uses if I were to create a hotspot using my phone? I don’t have a great phone data plan. If it was a little, it would be great because I could bring him around the house with me, but if it’s a lot I’ll have to use my computer.
For what I have seen the biggest traffic block is the speech recognition and the speech synthesizes (TTS). For every sample he hears he send the audio file to the server to get the sentence, that audio file is around 100kb (have seen 155000 bytes as max.). If the needs to speak he get the required data from the server and they are up to 690000 bytes for a single answer.
The traffic depends highly on how you will use your emo, if he doesn’t have to listen and answer questions then the traffic for a complete day are only a few kilobytes of status reports. If you chat with him the entire day, it can easily sum up to 100 megabyte or more.
