Nokia recently developed an application shoot-to-translate where you can translate Chinese text English from a photo taken using the mobile phone camera. The application is cool. This is very handy application for those who don’t know Chinese language.

The application use image recognition mechanism to understand the Chinese language and convert the Chinese language into English. I guess Nokia will add rest of the languages soon.

The step is like this. Start the Shoot-to-translate application. Capture an image of the text you want to recognize. The application will translate the Chinese text to English.
