Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing communication technologies face challenges in translating real-time spoken or signed communications between users speaking different languages, often lacking contextual data and being labor-intensive and time-consuming.
Innovation Solution
Systems and methods for real-time translation that convert input communication data into transcripts, analyze emotional and expressive cues, and generate output data in multiple languages, using machine learning models to ensure accurate and contextual communication.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If real-time translation is implemented between multiple languages, then communication efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary translation server that mediates between users speaking different languages. The server receives communication data from a first user, translates it to the target language, and delivers it to the second user. This intermediary approach enables real-time multi-language translation without requiring complex translation capabilities in each user's device, thus improving communication efficiency while managing system complexity through centralized translation processing.
2Measurement precision
If translation accuracy including contextual and emotional data is improved, then communication quality is enhanced, but processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-processing communication data to extract contextual and emotional information before translation. The system analyzes the input data to identify sentiment, tone, and contextual cues, then incorporates these elements into the translation process. This preliminary analysis ensures high translation accuracy that preserves the original message's nuance while maintaining real-time processing through optimized analysis algorithms.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple output languages are generated simultaneously, then communication versatility is improved, but computational load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the translation process by generating translations for multiple languages in parallel rather than sequentially. The translation server divides the computational task into separate language translation streams that can be processed simultaneously, each handling translation to a specific target language. This segmentation approach enables the system to support multiple output languages at once, improving communication versatility while distributing computational load across parallel processing channels to manage energy consumption.

AI summary
Systems and methods for translating communications between two or more users who communicate in different languages. A first user provides input communication data to their electronic device in a first spoken language data or a first signed language data. The input communication data is converted from audio and/or video data into an input communication transcript in a first written language. The input communication transcript is then translated into an output communication transcript in a second written language. The output communication transcript is used to generate output communication data in a second spoken language or a second signed language that is understandable to a receiving user. The output communication data is provided to the receiving user's electronic device where it can be output to the receiving user.
