SpeechRecognitionEvent: results property

View on MDN ↗

The results read-only property of the SpeechRecognitionEvent interface returns a SpeechRecognitionResultList object representing all the speech recognition results for the current session.

Specifically this object will contain all final results that have been returned, followed by the current best hypothesis for all interim results. When subsequent result events are fired, interim results may be overwritten by a newer interim result or by a final result — they may even be removed, if they are at the end of the “results” array and the array length decreases. Final results on the other hand will not be overwritten or removed.

Value

A SpeechRecognitionResultList object.

Examples

This code is excerpted from our Speech color changer example.

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