What it does
Say "Alexa, tell flight control to launch to 100,000 metres" or "Alexa, tell flight control to fly me to the Moon" or "Alexa, tell flight control to Abort!" and Alexa will fly you there!
How we built it
Alexa -> AWS (API) -> GCP (WebSocket server custom API) -> Python process -> KSP (exposed API)
Challenges we ran into
Rocket science is hard... Setting up Python and especially WebSockets was hard due to misconfigurations. Also, KSP just updated so the mod we were using
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Rocket science was hard. It can launch any rocket to orbit and even fly to the Moon by itself!
What we learned
Rocket science. A lot of rocket science. (And how to program an Alexa skill)
What's next for Alexa Kerbal
More actions for the Alexa to perform. Fly back from the Moon.
