Its been some time since I worked on this, I plan to pick it back up soon and continue it but with some improvements + make it open source!
In other news I recently got llm's running on my phone which hosts a api endpoint which I can make orion kit use when I am out and away from wifi👀
Man the Microsoft HoloLens was so far ahead of its time, wish the v1 had full had tracking, if any one has a HoloLens 2 they dont need anymore let me know 👀
Android AI Agent Is Alive!
i also recommend backing up all the keys and info the device outputs in the terminal before you do any changes to it as you need those incase you decide to revert back to factory firmware in the future
Not just yet as im still working on it, I plan to do write ups soon, I can help you with getting things setup if you want, im using idf and i started with there examples and went from there, If you want to chat on discord its bentlybro

I so cant wait to put this to the test 👀
Currently on the hunt for a fast local text to speech model that supports streaming in text and streaming out audio, any one have any suggestions? currently testing coqui TTS which is pretty decent
Finally got my Proxmox VM set up with GPU passthrough to Ubuntu Server!
Docker with GPU support is up, and now I have Ollama, Piper, and Whisper running flawlessly. Orion (my personal AI assistant) is now fully local and is on 24/7!
This is all laying the groundwork for OrionKit’s next big leap. 😉
Built a Discord bot to monitor service status pages—because downtime happens way too often! 🛠️ Hosting a free public version for anyone to add to their server or self-host.
For now it monitors OpenAI, Github and Discord!
Check it out!

This must be why I love dark mode so much!
Got some cool things cooking up for you at the moment, just doing some quick tests first of all so dont mind me :)
Trying out some more bsky features like making a custom feeds, I made this one bsky.app/profile/bent...
This will share any github related posts and its a great way to find new repos and projects :)
Whoa that looks so cool! I want to build one 👀
add all the custom shortcuts!
You can make your own custom feeds to see all the custom stuff you want! docs.bsky.app/docs/starter... - I'm going to look into making my own tech feed
also be sure to check out bsky.app/feeds as there are a lot of cool ones there 🙂
Got a website or GitHub you're proud of? Drop your links! Whether it’s a sleek portfolio, quirky side project, or experiments, I’d love to see what you’ve built.
I’m always on the hunt for cool new projects!
I’ll go first!

This is what it can do at the moment, its all real time using web sockets and I'm working on a python SDK so its super easy to use and integrate to existing discord bots.
Remote bot control like stopping/restarting, viewing logs ect
Super early but I feel this could be helpful to a lot of people.
Hmmm... If only there was a way to manage multiple discords bots all from a single platform 👀
Well I'm working on something for that, I have several bots running and I cant properly manage them, well now I can.
Ill be showing more soon as its early but I have a bunch of cool things coming!
This is a website dashboard with a retro pixel-art aesthetic and sections titled "Currently Listening," "Current Activity," "System Stats," and "Weather." Here's a suggested alt text: "A retro-styled website dashboard with a dark theme and pixelated font. The header reads 'What I'm Up To' on a glowing purple gradient background. Below are four sections: 'Currently Listening' shows the song 'Looking for a Star' by XXXTENTACION, with options to listen on LastFM or Spotify. 'Current Activity' displays 'Researchin' with a globe icon. 'System Stats' includes CPU usage (22.0%), RAM usage (86.17%), and GPU usage (4.0%). 'Weather' displays 8°C, feels like 6°C, with light rain, 82% humidity, and wind at 4 m/s. The background features small scattered stars, enhancing the retro space theme."
Got bored so decided to do some website updates, I'm loving how its coming along, will be live soon 🙂
(also rip to my ram)
its coming along so well!! im really liking the look of this so far and this will be on my github soon :)

First post from my custom bluesky electron client 👀
I love how developer friendly bluesky is! thank you for letting us do awesome stuff like this
Hmm that would be cool, if you do this id love to see, I wonder how well it would work. If only you could run linux on the ipad its self then that would be even better, could be doable with a cheap android tablet to make it run actual Linux 😁
haha I'm glad I'm not the only one with this idea, I plan to make this project fully opensource soon, got a bunch of cool ideas and updates to come😉
A photo of various electronic devices. The setup includes a red handheld device with a bunny icon on the screen, Rabbit R1, a circular transparent gadget with visible internal components, my OrionKit, a black and orange Flipper Zero displaying "Mr. Robot" on its screen, and a custom handheld device running Kali Linux with a keyboard and touchpad, my HackberryPi
Can you ever have too many handheld devices? I don’t think so!
Rabbit R1
Seeed Studio's SenseCAP Watcher (now my OrionKit)
Flipper Zero
HackBerryPi
Soon to have a ClockWork uConsole!
What’s your favourite handheld gadget?
This is an image of a SenseCAP Watcher from seeedstudio, showing a screen that says "Update Available!" with the current version displayed as "v0.1.0" and the new version as "v0.1.1." Below the text are two buttons: one labeled "Update" in green and another labeled "Skip" in gray. The device is placed on a purple mat with grid and circle patterns.
OTA updates now working ✅
UI improvements are done ✅
Battery life has been improved ✅
Custom on device apps ✅
And much more, and I'm only just getting started 😉
#SenseCAPWatcher
My OrionKit is finally coming to life, using seeedstudio's SenseCAP Watcher, perfect little device, will post more updates soon but a lot of cool progress is being made, it's basically my own Rabbit R1.
