Despite having the most powerful and international translator at the moment, it seems that Google has given in to kill potential competition or add the talents of the creators of Word Lens to their own team. And it is that the great search engine company has bought the company Quest Visual, owner of this application that surprises with its usefulness and translation possibilities. A transaction that, as a first result, gives the possibility of getting hold of the application completely free for the first time since it was launched.Of course, temporal
The announcement comes from the website of Quest Visual, where they welcome the possibility of bringing their technology and knowledge of translation to Google Something that, according to his own words, will also have results in the future of translation In addition, as a way of thanking you, you now offer both your app, Word Lens, and language packs necessary to translate into other languages totally free Quite a detail considering that originally it had a price of about four euros However, this offer will not last forever, stating that the application will remain free of charge during the transition of the Quest Visual team to Google
Other details of the agreement are unknown, such as the sum of dollars that Google has disbursed to take over this company and its amazing application . And the thing is that Word Lens is a well-known translation tool that has already surprised many with its possibilities. Thus, using the terminal's camera, Word Lens is capable of instantly translating any text or message captured by the target , displaying the result on the terminal screen but respecting the font A technology that almost seems like magic and is really useful for not to lose any detail when changing languages.
From this moment on we just have to wait and see what results this transaction has Something that will undoubtedly result in a better translation tool which, quite possibly, allows simultaneous translation of written texts, posters and other matters as Word Lens already allows, but presumably through the application Google translatorSomething that at the moment can only be done by taking a photograph of a clear text. However, the technology of Word Lens and the potential of Google suggest that the results they can be even more surprising and eye-catching.
For now the best option is to take advantage of the offer that Quest Visual offers to all users, allowing them to download their application World Lens fully free for both iOS as for Android through App Store and Google Play It is also curious that this company has a version for Google's glasses, Glass, a tool that could well be exploited in the not too distant future. After this period of free operation, when the equipment is fully integrated into Google it is possible that Word Lensdisappears, so it is an opportunity to take into account.
