Thing Translator
Thing Translator is a simple and ingenious prototype from Google that demonstrates the power of artificial intelligence in understanding the physical world. The tool allows you to point your phone (or computer) camera at any object around you (e.g., a chair, a cup, a pair of glasses), and the system will immediately identify the object and pronounce its name in another language of your choice. The tool relies on optical recognition and cloud translation technologies to provide an instant learning experience that links the word to its real image.
