WireOS

WireOS is an OS created by Wire/kercre123.

Wire's goal is to provide a stable, up-to-date, easily-buildable base for others to clone and modify.

It is based off of the leaked 2.0.1.6076 source code.

Changes Made

• More normal-looking eyes on Vector 2.0
• A fixed loosepixel animation
• "unintentional performances" and "intentional performances"
  • Anki-created PR which was never merged
  • I don't know exactly what this entails, but it makes him do the binaryeyes and tangram animations on his own sometimes.
• Fixes an EMR reading bug
  • In the original code, the LCD drawing code would read the EMR partition upon every single LCD draw (30 times per second). This seems to have caused I/O weirdness.
  • It reads the EMR partition for the hardware model version. Vector 1.0 and 2.0 screens are different, and the code must adjust for that.
  • I made it so it only reads on LCD init.
• Uses the Picovoice Porcupine wakeword engine
  • You can customize it in the wired webserver.
• Includes wired
  • "Wire Daemon"
  • A special webserver program (at :8080) which is where custom wake word training happens, allows you to set the CPU/RAM frequency profile, and allows you to opt-out of auto-updates.
  • This is added as part of the OTA creation, so you can only easily use it if you have a WireOS OTA installed.
• Uses a Docker builder, so it can build (targeting Vector) on any x86_64 Linux machine
• Gamma correction
  • His camera now has much less trouble with brightly lit objects
• Rainbow eyes
  • If chosen, his eyes will always cycle through all the hues
  • (this can be chosen in :8888/demo.html)
