Short Description: Hands-free voice navigation and accessibility plugin for websites.
Source Code
The unminified, human-readable source code for all JavaScript and CSS used in this plugin is included in the /source directory.
These source files were manually minified and/or obfuscated to create the optimized versions located in the /assets/ directory. No automated build tools (e.g., Webpack, Gulp) were used in this process.
What Is voNavPilot?
voNavPilot©2025 lets users navigate your site using voice commands. With just one key press, visitors can control everything hands-free — no mouse or keyboard needed. Designed for accessibility and ease of use, the plugin supports voice-activated actions like scrolling, clicking, reading content, and switching languages, making your site more inclusive and user-friendly. The initial version focuses on essential features for seamless website navigation.
How It Works
voNavPilot© introduces seamless, voice-driven navigation. When your site loads, it welcomes users with a voice prompt: “Welcome to voNavPilot©, your voice navigation assistant. Press any key to start voice control.” A single key press starts hands-free browsing. The plugin uses a dynamic command engine to respond to voice input for scrolling, opening links, filling forms, and triggering accessibility features like zooming, grayscale mode, or reading content aloud. Commands are customizable in five major languages—English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian.
Under the hood, voNavPilot© uses:
– fuzzysort v3.1.0 – Fast fuzzy string sorting
– Levenshtein 2.0.6 – String similarity detection
– NoSleep v0.12.0 – Keeps the device awake during use
