JavaScript Speech Recognition
Learn how you can use speech recognition effectively in your browser and on mobile platforms. We’ll discuss what speech recognition is, review the current state of the W3C Web Speech API specification, including which vendors have implemented pieces of the specification. We’ll have live demos on using speech recognition for dictation, querying the web for answers, and translating English to other languages.
