Word Lens
Augmented reality translation, wild nail art and your own digital scoreboard in our weekly web review
Augmented reality just got a step closer to reality with the release of the new Word Lens from Quest Visual. The app instantly translates text from one language to another (currently it only supports English and Spanish) using the built-in camera on an iPhone or iPod touch. It doesn’t work so well with handwriting but performs impressively when viewing signs, books or other printed text.
COOL HUNTING always gets permission to use the images we publish; however, as an independent publication, we cannot afford to continue fighting unfair claims of copyright infringement, so the images have been removed from this post.
