Japanese telecom service provider NTT Docomo has developed the Jspeak face-to-face translation service for Apple iPhone.
iPhone users can use the service for free until May 2015.
The Jspeak app enables non-Japanese speakers traveling in Japan to make face-to-face conversations by speaking into a smartphone to get a translation as screen text and voice readout.
The service translates 5 languages — Chinese, English, Indonesian, Korean, and Thai — into Japanese and vice versa.
