SpeechRecognition: soundend event
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
The soundend
event of the Web Speech API is fired when any sound — recognizable speech or not — has stopped being detected.
Syntax
Use the event name in methods like addEventListener()
, or set an event handler property.
js
addEventListener("soundend", (event) => {});
onsoundend = (event) => {};
Event type
A generic Event
with no added properties.
Examples
You can use the soundend
event in an addEventListener
method:
js
const recognition = new webkitSpeechRecognition() || new SpeechRecognition();
recognition.addEventListener("soundend", (event) => {
console.log("Sound has stopped being received");
});
Or use the onsoundend
event handler property:
js
recognition.onsoundend = (event) => {
console.log("Sound has stopped being received");
};
