RGT Voice Control Beta (Windows)

1

A few of us on the RGT Facebook Group have managed to get voice control working in RGT (Windows only), so I thought I’d share it here in case anyone else wanted to give it a go.

It’s free and easy/quick to setup. You just need to download/install AutoHotkey V1.1, then download and run the AutoHotkey script.

The latest AutoHotkey script is here:

Setup guide here:

Supported Voice Commands

Steering

“Left”: Move your rider 1 lane to the left.

“Right”: Move your rider 1 lane to the right.

“Three Left”: Move your rider 3 lanes to the left.

“Three Right”: Move your rider 3 lanes to the right.

Enable/Disable Voice Control

“Voice Off”: Disable voice commands.

“Voice On”: Enable voice commands.

General

“Screenshot”: Takes a screenshot and copies it to the clipboard.

“Look Behind”: Sends keyboard shortcut “l”. Not supported by RGT yet.

“Wave”: Sends keyboard shortcut “w”. Not supported by RGT yet.

“Change Camera”: Sends keyboard shortcut “c”. Not supported by RGT yet.

“Teleport”: Sends keyboard shortcut “o”. Not supported by RGT yet.

There’s a guy who’s been testing it who races on RGT most days… he’s also got a Kick Steer, but has preferred using voice to steer (on the courses that don’t require too many lane changes!).

I personally prefer using a mini-keyboard for steering, but can see me using voice control for other actions like “look behind”, “teleport” etc. if/when RGT add keyboard shortcuts for them.

It’s still early days with it… post any feedback here.

Have you had any contact with RGT devs that lead you to believe these keyboard shortcuts are already on their roadmap? I was going to enter a support ticket that they need keyboard shortcuts for all these actions.

Yeah, this was in response to a request for a “look behind” keyboard shortcut on the FB group:

I’ve also requested the others.

@oggie41 Thanks for posting - this is pretty cool. I am not on Windows unfortunately but look forward to seeing how this plays out.

Thanks @JSampson. There’s definitely potential with it… for something like teleporting it’d be so much easier to just say “next”, “teleport” to teleport to the rider in front, rather than messing around trying to navigate using the arrows on the remote app. Hopefully RGT buy into this and provide all the shortcuts we need.

There’s also a group of adaptive cyclists that use handcycles with RGT - it’s something that could work really well for them.

All the script does is send keyboard commands based on detected voice commands, so I’m guessing the same kind of thing could be done with iOS etc…
