Word fetching and translating method and device

Abstract

The invention discloses a word fetching and translating method and device. The word fetching and translating method comprises the following steps: reading display picture data; recognizing charactersin the picture data through an optical character recognition technology; translating the characters into a preset language; and displaying a translation result above the picture data in a floating manner. For the word fetching and translating method, picture data is read, and characters are recognized from the picture data, and then the translated result is displayed above the picture data in a floating mode after the characters are translated into the preset language, so that word fetching and translation can be carried out on the picture data of various sources to directly complete the process from picture obtaining to translation, thus omitting manual switching calling between various tools, and simplifying the translation operation.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of image processing, and in particular to a method and device for extracting and translating words. Background technique [0002] Now many mobile terminals can use cameras to capture and input images of areas that need to be translated, then perform character recognition, and finally translate the recognized characters in a timely manner. [0003] However, in the existing solution for translation, the camera needs to be called first for the scanning and recognition process, and the camera can only capture the content outside the plane of the device. It cannot capture and recognize the content of the pictures saved in the mobile phone, and cannot realize the translation requirements contained in the local pictures. . Contents of the invention [0004] The present invention proposes a method and device for word translation, which reads and displays picture data, recognizes text from the picture ...
