Working on a voice and gesture home automation system to control IoT devices (heaters, lights, sensors) . Do I need to bring the Isaac SDK in as well as Riva to control servos and Iot devices? Would anyone have a workflow diagram on this process? Using Jetson edge appliances (nano and xavier). Thanks for any input. ---

Hi @vanessa.crosby, Riva isn’t available for Jetson, however you can try using the jetson-voice container for ASR/NLP/TTS: > **[GitHub - dusty-nv/jetson-voice: ASR/NLP/TTS deep learning inference library for...](https://github.com/dusty-nv/jetson-voice)** > > ASR/NLP/TTS deep learning inference library for NVIDIA Jetson using PyTorch and TensorRT We don’t have a dedicated SDK for IoT devices (Isaac is for robotics), so you may want to look into other software for that. I had checked out [home-assistant.io](http://home-assistant.io) before which looked promising but didn’t actually try it out myself. Good luck with your project! ---

Sorry I dont understand how its not available for Jetson. I just loaded Riva quickstart beta 1.7 on my NX and it seems to be doing fine… Can you explain what will be missing? ---

For sanity’s sake I tried this myself, and when you go to run the scripts it throws errors (as expected) ```bash riva_quickstart_v1.7.0-beta $ sudo bash riva_init.sh WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was requested ``` ---

Dusty thanks for your answers. Ok yes, I see that error. Is there a plan to integrate Riva into the NX? If so a time line for that? ---

Thanks, it is something that we have begun looking into from an engineering perspective but don’t have formal release timeline to share for it at this point. ---

Which Nvidia edge device do you recommend until NX and Riva are compatible? ---

My recommendation would be to continue with Xavier and use the jetson-voice ASR/NLP/TTS implementations until Riva is compatible. ---
