SpeechRecognitionResultList

Limited availability

This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

The SpeechRecognitionResultList interface of the Web Speech API represents a list of SpeechRecognitionResult objects, or a single one if results are being captured in non-continuous mode.

Instance properties

SpeechRecognitionResultList.length Read only

Returns the length of the "array" — the number of SpeechRecognitionResult objects in the list.

Instance methods

SpeechRecognitionResultList.item

A standard getter that allows SpeechRecognitionResult objects in the list to be accessed via array syntax.

Examples

This code is excerpted from our Speech color changer example.

js
recognition.onresult = (event) => {
  const color = event.results[0][0].transcript;
  diagnostic.textContent = `Result received: ${color}.`;
  bg.style.backgroundColor = color;
};
