ABBYY company, a leading global developer of technologies of optical recognition of documents, data capture and linguistic software, announced the release of ABBYY FotoTranslate – a unique program for Nokia smartphones, which allows you to quickly and accurately translate the words of the images captured by a camera embedded in the mobile device.
For the first time in a single application mobile version of the famous technology of optical recognition and the latest electronic dictionaries are integrated. To use the new program there is no need for Internet connection, signal of network or access to any external database dictionaries required – all you need for recognition and translation is already in the ABBYY FotoTranslate.
ABBYY FotoTranslate will help in situations when it is necessary to translate foreign words: for example, when ordering a meal from the restaurant, reading books, newspapers, street signs, price tags in stores or road signs. The program will be useful for the study of foreign languages: the translation of the smartphone is easier and more interesting than using a paper dictionary. ABBYY FotoTranslate will be appreciated by businessmen too: the application is convenient to use in overseas missions and at international conferences.
ABBYY FotoTranslate supports translation from English, German, French, Italian, Spanish into Russian as well as from Russian into the mentioned languages. The most modern dictionaries of famous authors, publishers, and the most current and complete versions of ABBYY Lingvo dictionaries are used, which were earlier developed by ABBYY.
Translations with ABBYY FotoTranslate are simple and convenient as never before. There is no need to type words on the keyboard. Just pushing a button is enough – you just need to photograph the word that you want to translate – all the rest will be done by the program itself. The word on the picture will be recognized and will automatically be converted into a text, then the program will find its meaning in the dictionary and the translation will appear on the screen.
If part of the word wasn’t included in the frame, ABBYY FotoTranslate will suggest possible variants of spelling from which you can choose the best option.
If you photographed the whole text, the application will allow to translate all the words in the picture, there will be no need to make new photos.
