#3Cute. Playing the video constantly had my own Amazon Echo answering the same questions.
It's not clear how much the Alexa Voice Service would cost in a commercial product?

Actually I can't see anything about licensing costs, just a program that approves the device you are building.
So I assume is it free if you build a product for it. Maybe they want to achieve world domination?

The device SDK appears to be Apache2-licensed: https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/LICENSE....
... so I guess at no cost?

I can understand the SDK being free, it would seem strange to me that a commercial product could actually plug in to the service for free, and without limits.

And if the mouth would be more aligned with the talking, but the engine is probably not strong enough.
But it seems that the echo-light is somehow coupled to the eyes, which is nice.
