SpeechMap

This is a prototypical demo showing how to control a map using natural speech interaction. Check out the Demo!

UPDATE: Based on a set of API changes, the demo doesn't work anymore!

Possible Interactions so far:

• panning
• zooming
• creating markers
• drawing lines

Try to use sentences like:

• "Move to San Francisco"
• "Draw a marker in America"
• "Set a point in chicago"
• "Connect Los Angeles and San Francisco"
• "Zoom in"
• "Pan up"
• "Pan to the left"

Hints/ Problems:

• Based on the geocoder only locations in America are useful
• The webkit speech recognition seems to randomly stop, which is why it asks repeadetly for permissions

Based on:

• Leaflet
• Wit for the natural speech recognition
• mapquest for the geocodings
