Unity is still adding to the [WebGL API] and currently lacks `Microphone` support.

I was able to add `Microphone` support as a `wslib` plugin in Unity and here is the first [demo]. [debug]

Arrays can be [shared] between WebGL and C#.

[HTTPS Microphone Test].

Unity WebGL supports [plugins].

Microphone can work in WebGL with a [plugin].

HTML5 [can access the microphone].

Looks like Chrome has to be started in a special way to allow [working locally].

Some features also require [HTTPS].

This [demo] can get the nice microphone names.

Visionpunk, creator of UFPS, [tasked the Opsive team with taking over Ultimate FPS]. Ryan Buhr has this saying about making video games, “Do you want to make a game engine, or do you want to make a game? You can’t do both, you need to pick one to do it well!”.

Unity is developing a [new input system].

Unity 5.3.4 [lacks Microphone support in WebGL] and I don’t see it on the [roadmap]. In the meantime, a 3rd party WebGL workaround will need to be used. I of course need it for my [word detection] plugin. The forum references a couple cool plugins. 1) [pitch detection demo] and 2) [MicrophoneWebGL.unitypackage] which will need to be adapted to work. The Unity Web Player has been deprecated and appears to just work in Firefox as you can see with [Demo 1].
