Abstract

An image character translation device comprises a storage unit, an image input unit, a character identification unit and a language translation unit; wherein, the storage unit is used for storing a plurality of word stocks, and each word stock is corresponding to one character type; the image input unit is used for capturing images and providing translation modes for a user to select in order to translate the characters in the captured images, confirm the character type in the captured images and appoint the translation type; the character identification unit is used for analyzing the captured images, converting the formats of the images into editable text data, abstracting character objects from the text data, converting the character objects into toencode and drawing a comparison between the toencode and the data in the database corresponding to the confirmed character type so as to identify characters; the language translation unit is used for translating the identified character into the appointed language and outputting the translation result. The invention also provides an image character translation method. The device and the method of the invention can translate image data with different languages in real time, so as to identify the character information in the images.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an image-to-text translation device and method. Background technique [0002] At present, what we are facing is a multilingual environment. People from different countries communicate with each other more and more frequently. When traveling abroad, shopping, and making friends, it is inevitable to be exposed to many foreign languages ​​that have not been learned. For example, a tourist who does not understand any foreign language travels to France and cannot understand road signs, menus, introductions to attractions, etc., causing a lot of inconvenience. [0003] The development of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology can realize the automatic acquisition of text image information to a certain extent, which is usually used to scan paper documents into electronic files, and process the electronic files to identify the text content in it. However, many foreign characters in life scenes cannot be manipulated by paper s...
