Translation of images and signs using Google Translate: Imagine a situation where you are walking around abroad, seeing signs and trying to understand what it’s all about. It could be the opening hours of a store, or a menu in a restaurant. N ot everyone has an English translation, this is why Google Translate’s new feature called “Instant Camera Translation” is so necessary. This option allows you to translate text in images instantly just by focusing the camera or uploading a photo. How to do it? Download the Google Translate app if you haven’t already.
Open the application and select the language of the text you are trying to translate and the language you speak. Tap the camera icon on the left side of the text field. Point the camera at the text you want to translate. There are three modes to choose from: ‘Instant’ for real-time translation, ‘Scan’ for taking a photo and using your finger to highlight the text, and ‘Import’ to upload a photo from your photo library. If you prefer to use an image from your library, simply tap ‘Import’ in the lower left corner of the screen. Remember, the accuracy of the translation can depend on the quality of the image and the legibility of the text.
