# Microphone Capture Information

Note: these instructions are based on using the DVT3 robots.

#### To clear mic data from the robot if desired:

- Make sure your robot is connected to the network and you can `ssh` into it.
- Give the command to delete all the captured mic data: [`./project/victor/scripts/clear_micdata.sh`](/project/victor/scripts/clear_micdata.sh)

#### To create recordings saved to the robot:

- To save to the "triggeredCapture" folder, say "Hey Vector" + whatever you want to record (the "Hey Vector" is not captured)
- To save to the "debugCapture" folder, go to the mic data debug screen (using Victor's button), and move the lift to the top. This will start a 15 second recording, and will keep starting recordings until the lift is moved down. The face displays the time remaining on the current recording.
- Note each "debugCapture" recording will also contain the raw unprocessed microphone capture, suffixed with `_raw`

#### To pull the recordings from the robot:

- Make sure your robot is connected to the network and you can `ssh` into it.
- Use the script that pulls all the stored mic captures from the robot: [./project/victor/scripts/pull_micdata.sh](/project/victor/scripts/pull_micdata.sh)
- This script creates a new folder in Downloads named with the date and time, and copies the microphone captures to it
