Explainer https://github.com/WebAudio/web-speech-api/pull/122 Specification https://webaudio.github.io/web-speech-api Summary This feature adds on-device speech recognition support to the Web Speech API, allowing websites to ensure that neither audio nor transcribed speech are sent to a third-party service for processing. Websites can query the availability of on-device speech recognition for specific languages, prompt users to install the necessary resources for on-device speech recognition, and choose between on-device or cloud-based speech recognition as needed.

False Estimated milestones Shipping on desktop 135 Anticipated spec changes Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or interop issues. Please list open issues (eg links to known github issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk (eg, changing to naming or structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way). https://github.com/WebAudio/web-speech-api/pull/122 Link to entry on the Chrome Platform Status https://chromestatus.com/feature/6090916291674112?gate=4683906480340992 This intent message was generated by Chrome Platform Status. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "blink-dev" group.
