SpeechRecognition: continuous property
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
The continuous
property of the
SpeechRecognition
interface controls whether continuous results are
returned for each recognition, or only a single result.
It defaults to single results (false
.)
Value
A boolean value representing the current SpeechRecognition
's
continuous status. true
means continuous, and false
means not
continuous (single result each time.)
