Current Capabilities - Linux
- Command Line -- accessible by default since it is text only
- GUI - GNOME
- Video rendered on remote machine transmitted using
- VNC for video output and ESD for speech (transmitted as wav file to local sound card)
- VNC for video output and SSIP for speech (transmitted as text to local TTS engine) - high latency network connection
- Video rendered on local machine using X11 forwarding for video and SSIP (text) to local TTS engine for conversion to speech. - low latency network connection
