Hey there! If you want to figure out a user's input volume when they speak, you can use the Web Audio API to analyze their audio input stream. Here’s a simple way to do it: 1. Create an AudioContext and AnalyserNode: Start by using the Web Audio API to set up an audio context and an analyser node to process the audio stream. 2. Connect the MediaStream: Link the user's audio track to the audio context using

createMediaStreamSource

. 3. Configure the AnalyserNode: Adjust settings like

fftSize

and

smoothingTimeConstant

to get the best results. 4. Calculate Volume: Regularly grab the frequency data from the analyser, calculate the root mean square (RMS) of the audio signal, and normalize it so you get a volume value between 0 and 1. Here’s a quick example of how you might do the calculation:

function calculateVolume() {
    analyser.getByteFrequencyData(dataArray);
    let sum = 0;
    for (const amplitude of dataArray) {
        sum += Math.pow(amplitude / 255, 2);
    }
    const volume = Math.sqrt(sum / dataArray.length);
    return volume;
}

And if you’re working with LiveKit’s React components, there’s an even easier way! You can use the

useTrackVolume

hook like this:

import { useTrackVolume } from "livekit/components-react";

function SpeakerVolumeIndicator({ track }) {
    const volume = useTrackVolume(track);

    return (
        <div>
            <p>Volume: {volume.toFixed(2)}</p>
        </div>
    );
}
