谷歌翻譯將升級(jí)：可實(shí)現(xiàn)實(shí)時(shí)聽(tīng)譯和拍照翻譯

Google will be announcing a new update for its translation app that recognizes voices and translates them into the desired language, the New York Times reports.

據(jù)《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》報(bào)道，谷歌計(jì)劃針對(duì)旗下翻譯應(yīng)用進(jìn)行全新升級(jí)，支持將語(yǔ)音翻譯成所需語(yǔ)言的文本。

Google Translate currently has 90 languages available, and since Skype has released a feature that translates spoken language, Google is coming out with its version.

目前，谷歌翻譯（Google Translate）支持90種語(yǔ)言的翻譯。此前，微軟旗下視頻通話服務(wù)Skype已推出語(yǔ)音翻譯功能，而谷歌也將對(duì)其翻譯應(yīng)用進(jìn)行類(lèi)似升級(jí)。?

Instead of attempting to type a language into the app to translate it, users will now be able to have their foreign friend speak into the phone so it can be immediately translated. They claim the technology will be very accurate.

此次升級(jí)后，用戶無(wú)需輸入文本，只需讓外國(guó)朋友對(duì)著手機(jī)講話，即可實(shí)現(xiàn)實(shí)時(shí)翻譯。谷歌表示，該項(xiàng)技術(shù)的準(zhǔn)確度很高。

Previously released apps like World Lens have attempted to make it possible to translate a road sign by pointing your camera at it, and the Times claims the Google update may come with similar features.

此前發(fā)布的World Lens等應(yīng)用已經(jīng)可以實(shí)現(xiàn)路牌的拍照翻譯。遇到不認(rèn)識(shí)的路牌，用戶只需拍下照片，即可進(jìn)行翻譯。《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》稱，升級(jí)后的谷歌翻譯也可能支持類(lèi)似功能。

Skype's version of voice translation requires a headset, and it is unclear if Google's version will require the same external aid.

此外，用戶使用Skype語(yǔ)音翻譯功能時(shí)，需佩戴頭戴式耳機(jī)，目前尚不清楚谷歌的語(yǔ)音翻譯功能是否也需要外部設(shè)備支持。
