Voice Recognition for Editor #1010

Open SachiniAbeygunawardhana opened 3 years ago

SachiniAbeygunawardhana commented 3 years ago

Hi, I am a Computer Science and Engineering undergraduate.

I added a new Speech Recognition feature to the application. This new feature allows users to use voice to edit their notes instead of typing.

Sub-features:

  1. There is a mic icon in the navbar to control Speech Recognition. It toggles when starting and ending recognition.

  2. Both 'editor' and 'review' sections of the page are automatically updated when the user speaks.

  3. Sensitive to the words 'enter','comma','period' and 'exclamation marks'. When those words are spoken by the user, it prints the corresponding punctuation mark instead of the word.

  4. Browser compatibility is taken care of. An alert box pops up in browsers that are not compatible with the used API.

API:
