I'm currently playing around with WebKit speech API and trying to implement it in a chrome extension. Unfortunately, I'm having many troubles with getting the typical pop up that appears when a site asks for microphone permission (allowing you to accept or decline). Any idea on how to accomplish this? I have a div which triggers the web speech recognition function on click. Thanks so much! All help is appreciated!
Native method getUserMedia is what you want, and don't forget to declare audioCapture permissions.
