VoiceTra
VoiceTra is a speech translation app that translates your speech into different languages. It supports 31 languages and can be downloaded and used for free, with an easy-to-use interface to check the accuracy of translation results. Whether enhancing travel experiences or welcoming visitors to Japan, VoiceTra serves as a personal speech translator.
VoiceTra utilizes high-precision speech recognition, translation, and speech synthesis technologies developed by NICT. It allows for instant switch of translation direction, enabling communication between speakers of different languages. Text input is available for languages without speech input.
Best suited for travel-related conversations, VoiceTra is recommended for transportation, shopping, hotels, sightseeing, and serves as a disaster-prevention app as well. While it can function as a dictionary, inputting sentences helps to interpret context for accurate translation results.
Supported languages include Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean, French, Spanish, Arabic, and more. An internet connection is required, and translation results may be affected by network connectivity. Users are responsible for communication fees, including potential roaming charges.
The app was developed for research purposes and aims to improve speech translation technologies based on user data. Businesses may test the app, but continuous use is recommended through licensed services. Refer to the "Terms of Use" for further details.
