SpeechRecognition: processLocally property
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The processLocally property of the
SpeechRecognition interface specifies whether speech recognition must be performed locally on the user's device.
See On-device speech recognition for more information.
Value
A boolean value.
- If set to
true, speech recognition done via theSpeechRecognitionobject must be done locally. - If set to
false(the default), the user agent can choose whether to do the processing locally or remotely.
Examples
Basic usage
The following code creates a new SpeechRecognition object instance using the SpeechRecognition() constructor, then specifies that it should use local processing by setting processLocally to true:
js
const recognition = new SpeechRecognition();
recognition.processLocally = true;
This code is excerpted from our on-device speech color changer (run the demo live). See Using the Web Speech API for a full explanation.
