Inspiration

Do you ever stand at your closet for an hour, wasting away as you wonder what to wear?

What it does

Outfit Check, powered by Amazon Alexa, will assist you in finding a fashionable outfit perfect for the current season

How we built it

We used the Amazon Alexa developer SDK, passing user input about their outfit thoughts to a Lambda function, which replies to the user with opinions and suggestions

Challenges we ran into

The main challenge was connecting the Alexa skillset to AWS Lambda

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are very proud that we completed our project, that it's working smoothly, and that it is in production available as an Alexa skill

What we learned

We learned a lot about AWS and serverless execution, and that we should always start by producing a functional version of the minimum viable product before attempting to develop the advanced features of an application

What's next for Outfit Check

In the future, outfit check will be able to judge your outfit based on a picture of it, and will also know about special colors for holidays

How to use it

Ways you can invoke the skill:

  • "Alexa, outfit check?"
  • "Do my colors match?"
  • "Are my colors good?"

When asked about colors, respond in this format:

  • "White and Black"

When asked about the season, respond in this format:

  • "It's Spring"
