how to create a transcript of live speech

To create a transcript of live speech, you can use the speech recognition API as demonstrated in the session "Optimize for the spatial web" at WWDC 2024. Here’s a brief overview of the process:

Create a Speech Recognition Object: Start by creating a new speech recognition object. In Safari, this is prefixed with Webkit, but it follows a standard implementation.
Register a Handler for Result Events: Register a handler to listen for result events. When you get the event back, it contains a result list of all the snippets the recognizer has picked up so far.
Extract the Transcript: From the result list, take the latest one. Inside that result, there are multiple speech recognition alternatives. Grab the first one, and inside each alternative is the transcript.
Start the Recognizer: Start the recognizer on a user event, like a tap or a click. Note that there will be a permission prompt for microphone input, so ensure the user understands why they are being asked for this permission.

For more detailed information, you can refer to the session Optimize for the spatial web.
