Well now we have the full Web Speech API to speak back the translation! I've updated the demo to use the synthesis API. Unfortunately, it used an undocumented (and unofficial API) to perform the speech synthesis. In my Google I/O 2013 talk, " More Awesome Web: features you've always wanted" ( I showed a Google Now/Siri-like demo of using the Web Speech API's SpeechRecognition service with the Google Translate API to auto-translate microphone input into another language: Examine the localService flag of the voice object to tell. Note: Depending on the platform, Chrome might have to be online for the speech synthesis to work. The API also allows you to get a list of voice the engine supports: speechSynthesis.getVoices().forEach(function(voice) ) Msg.voice = voices // Note: some voices don't support altering paramsĬonsole.log('Finished in ' + event.elapsedTime + ' seconds.') However, you can also alter parameters to effect the volume, speech rate, pitch, voice, and language: var msg = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance() The most basic use of the synthesis API is to pass the speechSynthesis.speak() and utterance: var msg = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance('Hello World') If you're interested in speech recognition, Glen Shires had a great writeup a while back on the voice recognition feature, " Voice Driven Web Apps: Introduction to the Web Speech API". The post briefly covers the latter, as the API recently landed in Chrome 33 (mobile and desktop). The Web Speech API adds voice recognition (speech to text) and speech synthesis (text to speech) to JavaScript.
