Make a silent movie by talking to Chrome
Tuesday, March 19, 2013
Last month
, the
Web Speech API
brought voice recognition to
Chrome
users in more than 30 languages. We thought it would be fun to demonstrate this new technology by using an old one: silent film.
The Peanut Gallery
lets you add
intertitles
to old black-and-white movie clips just by talking out loud while you watch them. Create a film and share it with friends, so they can bring out their inner screenwriters too.
We hope that developers will find many uses for the Web Speech API, both fun and practical—including new ways to navigate, search, enter text, and interact with the web. We can’t wait to see how people use it.
