Business challenge story
Learning to communicate
In a globalized economy, even small businesses are seeing the benefits of an international outlook—whether that means finding customers in new markets or sourcing products and components from overseas suppliers.
Meanwhile, for international enterprises, any technology that makes it easier to collaborate across countries, continents and cultures can potentially be a game-changer—providing a route into markets that competitors may not be able to access.
Lingmo International helps businesses take advantage of these opportunities by offering a range of next-generation translation products and services, including innovative mobile apps and state-of-the-art wearable translation devices.

Danny May, Lingmo’s CEO, explains why he founded the company: “A few years ago, I was in China and my passport was stolen. I tried to communicate with local police using a translation app on my phone, and… let’s just say it didn’t go well!
“It’s a common problem, especially for businesspeople who may be sent to work in another country at short notice, and don’t have time to learn much of the local language. There are a lot of translation apps that claim to help, but in real-world situations, they rarely deliver on their promises.”

May felt that he could do better: “Machine learning and artificial intelligence have a huge potential to solve these kinds of problems. For the first time, it’s possible to build accurate, nuanced, real-time translation services that don’t just give you the gist, but help you understand the full context of a conversation. By turning that vision into reality, Lingmo’s goal is to help people who need to make sense of a new culture quickly.”
Remember the Babel Fish in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the fish you popped into your ear to translate any language? Well, now it's here.
Okay, it's not actually a fish. And only one part of it goes into your lughole. But the Translate One2One from Lingmo is a real device that can convert languages in real time (with a three to five second delay).
It currently works with English, Japanese, French, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German and Chinese, translating one to another. There is a catch. both speakers need to be wearing one. However, it will understand the nuances of local slang and dialects.

Its AI will also understand contextual speech, translating them into sentences the recipient will recognise.
The Translate One2One is powered by IBM Watson's Natural language Processor and Language Translation APIs. It is a standalone product, so doesn't required connection to a smartphone or other external device through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.

The device is available for purchase now and will ship in July. It is priced at $179 (£142) for one unit, although two are needed for translation between different people, so a 'travel pack' containing a pair of devices comes at a discount, costing $229.

Google has also been reported in the past to be working on a 'Babel Fish' device, although nothing much has been heard about the project for the last couple of years.
