Sledeći nivo komunikacije: naočare-prevodilac?

[ridiculus]

Da, dobro ste videli.

Electronics giant NEC has reportedly developed a wearable optical device that interprets foreign languages and projects a real-time translation directly onto the retina, enabling the wearer to communicate with other language speakers without an interpreter.

The prototype device — called "Tele Scouter" — consists of a tiny retinal display and microphone mounted on an eyeglass frame. The microphone picks up the conversation and transmits it to a small computer worn on the waist, which converts the speech to text and translates it into the user's native language.

The retinal display projects the text directly into the user's peripheral vision, allowing them to maintain eye contact with their conversation partner while reading the translation. According to the developers, the Tele Scouter can be used for hours on end without eye strain, because the wearer does not have to focus their eye on the displayed text.

Ovde imamo nekoliko fundametalnih tehnologija: HUD naočare, pretvaranje govora u tekst, i automatsko prevođenje. Svaka od ovih danas postoji, ali ne u idealnoj meri, a sve tri zajedno ne obećavaju zadovoljavajuć rezultat. Ovo mi liči na nekakvu prvoaprilsku šalu.

Treba samo da pogledate očekivanja koja su postojala npr. 1980. za godinu 2000. i sve će da vam bude jasno.
Potpuno je previđena masovna upotreba kompjutera i mobilnih telefona što je potpuno izmenilo svet.
Ko zna kakva će otkrića za 10-20 godina izmeniti svet?
