Does Google's Handwriting API work in web browsers yet?

I am looking for a handwriting recognition API that I can embed in my web application.

I found this: Handwriting Recognition API from Google. The post also refers to a Demo.

It is my understanding that this API works in all (newer) Chromium based web browsers, i. e. Google Chrome or MS Edge.

I opened the demo in both browsers (Google Chrome 106.0.5249.119 and MS Edge 106.0.1370.42) on my Win-11-64-bit machine. Same error message in both browsers:

Handwriting recognition API is not supported on this platform.

Any idea why I get this error message? Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Solution

  • For now, recognition API is only available on devices that have ChromeOS.
