Word Lens Translator: Incredible Visual Translation App Word Lens

source

Google has purchased Word Lens, an amazing app that translates foreign languages in real time using the iPhone and Android smartphone built-in camera. It's now free for a limited time.

In 2010, a company called Quest Visual developed an app called Word Lens. It seemed impossible, but the app translated a number of different languages in real time using just the smartphone's camera. It is very important for the traveler to know the route defined on the road.

Glimpse of App:




Main point is that, it doesn't require a connection to the internet, which is another benefit for business travelers.

When traveling in a foreign country, Word Lens users would simply hold the phone up to a sign and the camera would immediately translate it.

With Word Lens, iPhone users can translate the world. Apple even featured the app in its recent "Powerful" television ad for the iPhone 5s, and it's obvious why.

See the world in your language: instantly translate printed words using your built-in video camera, in real time!

The app itself is free to download from the App Store for both the iPhone and iPad, and I couldn't recommend it more highly. The translations are available via an in-app purchase, though they are currently free. It's also available on the Google Play Store for Android users.
