Overview
Enable natural voice commands and interactions between a robot and the people around it. With the LiveKit Agents framework, you can add high-level voice control to any robot, so an operator or bystander can direct it in plain language.
Common patterns
Voice apps commonly combine several capabilities:
- Voice commands: Tool calls from the agent trigger robot actions over RPC.
- Conversational feedback: The robot responds and reports status in natural language.
- Long-running actions: Run a robot action in the background using async tools so the agent keeps talking while the work completes.
