The Seamless Sign-Language Translator
16.手语翻译平板
For the millions of deaf people who cannot speak, everyday communication often requires costly human translators and tedious note writing. Enter the Uni, a tablet and attachment that leverages motion-sensing cameras and voice recognition to translate American Sign Language into spoken words—and spoken words into text—in real time. “The need for this is so great,” writes Ryan Hait-Campbell, CEO of San Francisco–based MotionSavvy, who is deaf.
对上百万的聋哑人来说,日常交流需要大量懂手语的人的帮助或者是繁琐的书面交流。而这款UNI手语翻译平板,配备有感应器、麦克风等装置,可将美式手语翻译成语音,还能把语言翻译成文字。“这个太棒了。”研发出此款平板的MotionSavy公司的CEO莱恩说道。莱恩自己就是一位聋人。
The Selfie Stick
17.自拍杆
If 2013 was the year in which selfie became a buzzword, then 2017 was the year selfies became a cultural phenomenon. Look no further than a recent Pew report, which found that at least a quarter of Americans have shared a selfie on a social-networking site (including Ellen Degeneres, Kim Kardashian and President Obama).
如果说2013年“自拍”只是一个热词的话,那么2017年自拍就已经成为了一种文化现象。通过皮尤研究中心最近的调查就知道,至少有四分之一的美国人在社交网络上晒过自己的自拍照(这其中包括艾伦•德杰尼勒斯、金•卡戴珊以及总统奥巴马)。
