After receiving my bachelor's degree, I began working in a group called NLP. As the name implies, we focused on Natural Language Processing (NLP) technologies. At the time, two of the most popular technologies to work with were the VoiceXML standard and Java applets. Both of them had issues. The first was only supported by Opera. The second, used to send the data to the server and execute an action based on the command pronounced by the user, required a lot of code and time. Today things are different. Thanks to the introduction of a dedicated JavaScript API, working with speech recognition has never been easier. This article will introduce you to this API, known as the Web Speech API. Speech recognition has several real-world applications. Many more people have become familiar with this concept thanks to softwares like Siri and S-Voice. These applications can drastically improve the way users, especially those with disabilities, perform tasks. In a website, users could navigate pages or populate form fields using their voice. Users could also interact with a page while driving, without taking their eyes off of the road. These are not trivial use cases.
