Summary
Bedtime mode: SPARK speaks one quiet fact, moves to a comfortable neutral position, then goes silent for the night. Responds only to a whispered "hey spark".
Why
Bedtime routines are hard for AuDHD kids. Having SPARK as a reliable, calm part of that routine makes it feel safe and familiar. The robot is still there — just quiet.
How
bin/tool-sleep: sets spark_sleep_mode: true in session- Lowers espeak amplitude significantly for all speech while in sleep mode
- Adjusts
RMS_SILENCE / SPEECH_ONSET_RMS in px-wake-listen for whisper sensitivity
- px-mind Layer 3 skips expression while
spark_sleep_mode: true (same as quiet mode)
- Wake from sleep mode: whispered wake word detected → normal mode
tool-sleep action: start|check|end
Difficulty
⭐⭐ Intermediate
