Google Working On Translating Phone Conversations In Real-Time

Google Voice

Mobile phones in the future will translate languages in real-time, enabling people from around the world to understand each other — that is, if Google (NSDQ: GOOG) can figure out a way to do it.

The internet giant, turned mobile phone inventor, thinks it can make a fairly operational system within a couple of years, reports the UK’s Sunday Times. The process will meld together its text translation services on the computer with its voice-recognition technology on the mobile phone. The end product will likely be inundated with challenges, considering that both services are fairly buggy and inconsistent today.
