Use this check to inspect a browser, device, network, permission, media, or input capability directly in the current runtime before relying on it in another workflow.

Microphone probe

Captured microphone probe supplied by the surface.

Diagnose a microphone from captured level windows, reporting verdict, loudness, and noise floor. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.^[1]

Verdict

Overall microphone diagnosis.

Window count

Number of analyzed level windows.

Level (dBFS)

Median RMS level in decibels relative to full scale.

Peak (dBFS)

Loudest observed peak in dBFS.

Noise floor (dBFS)

Background noise estimate in dBFS.

Clipped windows

Windows that reached the clipping threshold.

Sample rate (Hz)

Capture sample rate in hertz.

Issues

Stable machine-facing degradation codes.

• Results describe the current browser session and can change with permissions, privacy controls, hardware, drivers, network path, power state, or browser updates. Unsupported or withheld information is not proof that the underlying capability is absent.
• Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Repeat the check in the browser and device that will actually be used, then confirm important behavior with the relevant operating-system or network diagnostics. Avoid granting permissions that are unnecessary for the test.

• Webcam Tester

  Diagnose a webcam from a captured frame probe, reporting verdict, frame rate, and resolution.

• Audio Output Tester

  Diagnose audio playback from an output probe covering rate, channels, latency, and underruns.

• Pointer Checker

  Diagnose a pointer from move-event timestamps, reporting polling rate and capabilities.
