Why Speech Command?​

Voice control is everywhere at home—lights, fans, assistants—but it’s still rare in offline, low‑bandwidth outdoor mesh.

Adding a local, on‑device Speech Command layer to Meshtastic means you can trigger actions by speaking—even with gloves on, hands busy, or eyes up in the field. Spoken intent becomes compact, low‑bandwidth commands, speeding up response and laying the groundwork for richer, domain‑specific voice interactions.
