This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The item
getter of the SpeechRecognitionResultList
interface is a standard getter — it allows SpeechRecognitionResult
objects in the list to be accessed via array syntax.
Syntax
var myResult = speechRecognitionResultListInstance[0];
Returns
A SpeechRecognitionResult
object.
Examples
This code is excerpted from our Speech color changer example.
recognition.onresult = function(event) { // The SpeechRecognitionEvent results property returns a SpeechRecognitionResultList object // The SpeechRecognitionResultList object contains SpeechRecognitionResult objects. // It has a getter so it can be accessed like an array // The first [0] returns the SpeechRecognitionResult at position 0. // Each SpeechRecognitionResult object contains SpeechRecognitionAlternative objects that contain individual results. // These also have getters so they can be accessed like arrays. // The second [0] returns the SpeechRecognitionAlternative at position 0. // We then return the transcript property of the SpeechRecognitionAlternative object var color = event.results[0][0].transcript; diagnostic.textContent = 'Result received: ' + color + '.'; bg.style.backgroundColor = color; }
