Japan's NTT Docomo has come up with an ingenious device application for Android 4.0 to 4.4 smartphones or tablets.
It is called Jspeak.
According to Japan Today:
TOKYO —NTT Docomo, a personalized mobile solutions provider for smarter living, has launched its Jspeak face-to-face mobile translation service for smartphones and tablets, targeting travelers from abroad.
Jspeak is modelled on Docomo’s Hanashite Honyaku, the mobile-based automatic translation service now offered exclusively to Docomo subscribers in Japan. Jspeak will enable Japanese and non-Japanese speakers to enjoy face-to-face conversations simply by speaking into a smartphone or tablet to get a translation as screen text and voice readout. Ten languages - Chinese, English, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish and Thai - can be translated into Japanese and vice versa.Two plans will be offered. One for $.99 for one week and one for $2.99 for one month's service.

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation however I to find this topic to be
actually one thing which I think I'd never understand.
It sort of feels too complicated and extremely wide for me.
I'm having a look forward to your next put up, I'll attempt to get the grasp of
it!
