Ubiquitous Mobile Real Time Visual Translator Using Augmented Reality for Bahasa Language

Abstract

Abstract-Mobile technology have rapidly advanced over the years, successful researches of augmented reality on mobile phones under the different mobile platforms have made it possible to implement augmented reality technology on mobiles. Now the possibility of combining real time visual with augmented reality seems to be a success. This paper is simply to emphasize on combining real time visual with augmented reality technology on mobiles for education purpose. The research is based on how the implementation of real time visual translator on augmented reality mobile applications can help people in understanding/translating and give meanings to some writings displayed around them ubiquitously.

Using augmented reality with speech input for non-native children's language learning

“…There are already some AR applications that aid in real-time language translation and learning. For example, Parhizkar et al, (2013) demonstrated an AR mobile translator which could recognize text in the Malay language and translate it into English in real-time to assist foreigners communicating with Malay people. Fragoso et al, (2011) described a fairly similar application called TranslateAR, a multimodal mobile AR translator developed for the Nokia N900 smartphone.…”

Mobile augmented reality application for Telugu language learning

“…With a single click, application detects text area, calls a translation module in background and overlays the obtained translation on to the live video available for foreign languages like chinese etc. Behrag [2] demonstrated implementation of an android application which can recognize text in Bahasa language and translate to english language. Wojciech Bieniecki [3] demonstrated steps involved in image preprocessing before sending text for recognition, specifically with images from a digital camera using FineReader 7.0 software in the back-end.…”

Augmented reality based mobile application for real-time Arabic language translation

“…1. Example of augmented reality application [1,2] Mobile Augmented Reality applications are now growing increasingly and becoming more accessible due to the growth of smart phones/devices. Those applications affect many fields like education, medical, gaming, entertainments and translation to name but few.…”

“…Those applications affect many fields like education, medical, gaming, entertainments and translation to name but few. For Text translation, many applications are proposed on the market but they are yet limited to a few numbers of languages [2], [3], [4]. For further details, we refer to our paper "A Review on Using Augmented Reality in Text Translation" [5].…”
