Summary
An API to return a few(~3 for now) predicted events of the received events in javascript. This API enables apps like drawing app to draw the predicted line in advance, so users feel less latency.
Motivation
One of the existing gaps between native apps and web apps is the latency of the input. This is particularly more visible in drawing apps. A way to make users feel like the lines they are drawing appear in the realtime is to predict where user will draw next and they pre-draw that point as well. These APIs are provided by different platforms, and web platform is lacking such an API.
Interoperability and Compatibility Risk
This is a new API so there’ll be no compatibility change.
Edge: No signals
