Google working on smartphone software to automatically translate foreign languages into your native tongue
Posted on February 7, 2010 | No Comments
Check your calendar, friends, for the first time in a long time I was just wowed by a tech story. Google says it's working on smartphone software that would automatically translate foreign languages into your native tongue.

Toshiba works on instant voice translation software for cell phones
Posted on January 6, 2010 | No Comments

Their translation software, in its current iteration, enables cell phones to interpret between English, Chinese and Japanese. Toshiba says that the database, used on their TG01 "smartphone" (pictured on the left), for example, boasts a database of 30,000 words spoken in each of these languages. Toshiba optimized existing PC software for use in cell phones, which obviously have less processing power.
