Camera Translator – recognize & translate pictures.

To try out the the instant camera translation feature, download the Google Translate app. And “Import” lets you translate text from photos on your camera roll. 'Scan' lets you take a photo and use your finger to highlight text you want translated. The new look has all three camera translation features conveniently located on the bottom of the app: “Instant” translates foreign text when you point your camera at it. We’ve reduced that flickering, making the text more stable and easier to understand. In the past, you might have noticed the translated text would flicker when viewed on your phone, making it difficult to read. Last but not least, the feature has a new look and is more intuitive to use.

However, when your device is connected to the internet, the feature uses that connection to produce higher quality translations. And most of the languages can be downloaded onto your device, so that you can use the feature without an internet connection. This produces more accurate and natural translations, reducing errors by 55-85 percent in certain language pairs. Better translations powered by Neural Machine Translationįor the first time, Neural Machine Translation (NMT) technology is built into instant camera translations. Translate app can now determine what language the sign is in, and then translate it for you into your language of choice. Say you’re traveling through South America, where both Portuguese and Spanish are spoken, and you encounter a sign. We took care of that-in the new version of the app, you can just select “Detect language” as the source language, and the Translate app will automatically detect the language and translate.

When traveling abroad, especially in a region with multiple languages, it can be challenging for people to determine the language of the text that they need to translate. This means you can now translate from Arabic to French, or from Japanese to Chinese, etc. What’s more exciting is that, previously you could only translate between English and other languages, but now you can translate into any of the 100+ languages supported on Google Translate. Here’s a full list of all 88 supported languages. The instant camera translation adds support for 60 more languages, such as Arabic, Hindi, Malay, Thai and Vietnamese. Translate from 88 languages into 100+ languages
