Build an AI Wardrobe with Vonage Messages API (RCS) and Gemini
Blog post from Vonage
Amanda Cavallaro, a Developer Advocate, presents a project that allows users to create an AI-powered digital wardrobe assistant using Vonage Messages API and Google Gemini API. By leveraging Rich Communication Services (RCS), users can text a bot to display images of their clothes, addressing the common issue of forgetting wardrobe contents. The tutorial requires setting up a Vonage API account, Node.js, and configuring webhooks through ngrok for seamless connectivity. The project involves creating a Vonage application, managing environment variables, and using a JSON file to store wardrobe data, which Gemini processes based on user queries. The RCS messages are then sent as Rich Card Carousel Messages displaying relevant clothing items. The tutorial encourages users to explore various RCS message types and provides resources for further learning and community engagement.
