Google’s text translator for two

An interesting patent under the number US 20130297287 A1 , registered by Google, was published by the blogger GreyB . The patent describes an application that uses two keyboards at once on the screen and two input lines opposite each other so that the device can be used by two people sitting opposite each other. According to the company's plan, this application should automatically translate what one of the communicators writes into the language of another - and vice versa.

The application is an automatic text translator for direct communication. The arrangement of communicating people opposite each other allows the use of sign language and body in addition to textual communication. Google also claims the ability of the application to support recognition and decryption, followed by translation of voice input.

Various electronic devices have long been trying to adapt to help with translations. The possibility of using computers as translators was proposed back in the 40s, and in the 50s the first demonstration of primitive automatic translation was held. Numerous household systems and devices began to appear as early as the 1980s, mostly electronic dictionaries and phrasebooks. With the spread of smartphones, the task of text translation has become simpler, and more interesting applications have begun to appear.
