METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR TRANSLATING SPEECH SIGNAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240161731 titled 'METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR TRANSLATING SPEECH SIGNAL

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and an electronic device for translating a speech signal between two languages with minimized translation delay by translating fewer words based on the user's understanding of the second language.

  • The method involves translating only select words of a speech signal based on the user's proficiency in the second language.
  • The electronic device receives the speech signal, analyzes the user's level of understanding of the second language, and translates only the necessary words to minimize delay.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in language learning tools, real-time translation devices, and communication aids for multilingual individuals.

Problems Solved

1. Reducing translation delay in real-time communication. 2. Tailoring translations to the user's language proficiency.

Benefits

1. Improved communication efficiency. 2. Enhanced user experience. 3. Customized translations for individual users.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing Language Learning Devices for Personalized Translation

Possible Prior Art

There are existing translation devices that offer real-time speech translation, but they may not consider the user's language proficiency level when translating.

Unanswered Questions

How does the device determine the user's level of understanding of the second language?

The patent application does not specify the exact method used to assess the user's proficiency in the second language.

What languages are currently supported by the translation method?

The patent application does not mention the specific languages that the method can translate between.


Original Abstract Submitted

a method and an electronic device for translating a speech signal between a first language and a second language with minimized translation delay by translating fewer than all words of the speech signal according to a level of understanding of the second language by a user that receives the translation.
