The Tele Scouter -- created by technology company NEC -- features a microphone installed on the frame of the glasses, which records the conversation and transmits it to a wearable computer (strapped around the waist). Once the text is translated, it is displayed to the wearer, within their regular focus range, so both the text and individual can be focused on simultaneously.
NEC plans to release a more practical version of the Tele Scouter, for factory workers and sales assistants.....

Stupidy huh? I was going to post a scalding response to yours until I saw your name. It suggests that the idiocy of your statements were no coincidence. Maybe I will anyway...
You can't spell for starters (even though there's a spell check built into the website). That's sort of a prerequisite when critiquing another culture's grammer. Also, if your country didn't have the creativity and skill to come up with the product then judging it further makes you look like a BUFFOON!

Wow!! Amazing. But it would probably end up with that rubbish computer translation you get... none the less, you might find it easier to get the gist.

i'd say it should be meant for specific languages of difficulty or lesser known languages. maybe eastern european languages, hindi, thai, korean, or greek.
maybe chinese, but even that's not that difficult.but romance languages or other ones people just need to learn.

Cool!
Might diminish the need to learn another language, though, and there are studies that show that knowing multiple languages is better for your brain than knowing just one...
oh well, might be worth it in the near-future, anyways.

Why does all countries just not learn British english, not that fucked up spelling one the Americans use.
Then life would be so much easier, and the boffins at NEC coumd make something useful - 3 years ago
