Knight Rider MINI Voicebox Display - KITT LED VU-meter
Jupiter Electronics sells not just the KITT version of the LED UV-meter. They also sell a KARR version and both versions with blue LEDs.
The KITT LED UV-meter has to be adjusted to it's most sensitive setting and the Raspberry Pi's volume must be up to at least 85% in order to work well. This is why I added the external volume knob.
The toggle switch is used to turn off the KITT LED UV-meter (or mouth) if you would ever want to.
If you can't tell from the parts list the echo is powered by POE. Most folks don't have this in there home networks so you could use something like this for powering it up instead.
Since the device is headless I use VNC to start AVS.
The Alexa AVS Sample App is exactly like it says a sample. So some things are not supported like bluetooth and Amazon Music. :(
