DroneMobile Commands for Google Assistant
IMPORTANT!
Due to safety concerns, this first version of the DroneMobile-Google Assistant application does NOT include remote start features. Our team will be working hard over the summer to analyze user behavior to understand how to safely implement remote start features into voice command applications.
Also, when using Google Home, you will need to give permission for the DroneMobile action to work. To do so, please follow these directions: https://support.google.com/googlehome/answer/7124515?hl=en#personalresults
