| Abstract: | People would like to spend their holiday in different ways. Travelling with packages
is one of the popular holiday activities. However, communication in foreign
languages is a basis for free independent travellers. Due to the language barrier, for
example, the road sign in that country may not help the tourist much to find the right
way.
In tradition, using dictionary is the only solution. However, bringing a dictionary is
inconvenient, so it would be nice to have a portable dictionary in small size.
Therefore, developing a system to solve the problem in some popular used devices,
likes mobile phones, is important. Nevertheless, one of the limitations of the mobile
phone is not common to install applications, or only small memory size applications
can be installed.
The objective of this project is to implement a system which can facilitate people in
optical image's translation. With such system, they can easily know the words around
them by even standalone, likes hiking. Travellers can just need to send the photo with
optical words in a Multimedia Message Service (MMS) message and the translation
result in a Short Message Service (SMS) message would automatically received by
using their mobile phone. And no application needed to be installed in the mobile
phone. |
