Messenger speak to text functionality in custom application

Question

I am trying to recreate a function used in google's messenger app inside of my own application.

The functionality is shown here: https://support.google.com/glass/answer/3086044?hl=en

Specifically, "Your spoken message is transcribed into text and a preview of your message will appear in the display."

Is there anyway to access this functionality outside of the messenger application?

It's alright everyone. You can use Android's native API to achieve the same affect. Here is where i found my answer. http://viralpatel.net/blogs/android-speech-to-text-api/
