“翻译一对一”耳机是澳大利亚公司Lingmo International开发出来的。该公司表示这款耳机将结束政界人士和商业领袖出席国际会议时的尴尬。

The device translates sentences in three to five seconds using IBM’s artificial intelligence language software, Watson.

这款耳机使用IBM公司的人工智能语言软件Watson，能在三至五秒的时间里翻译出语句。

It is the first earpiece of its kind to translate languages without needing a constant connection to a mobile phone or Wi-Fi signal, and can translate between English, French, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German and Chinese.

这是首款无需一直连接到手机或无线网络信号就能翻译语言的耳机。可翻译的语言包括英语、法语、意大利语、西班牙语、巴西葡萄牙语、德语和汉语。

Lingmo has put the device on sale and claims it will be delivered as early as mid-July, in time for the start of the summer holidays.

Lingmo公司已开始发售这款耳机，并表示最早将于7月中旬交付使用，恰好能赶上暑期假日的开始。

There is one catch, however: the speaker and listener will have to wear a device each for the translation software to work.

但有一点：翻译者和倾听者都需要佩戴耳机，翻译软件才能工作。

Several technology companies are developing language earpieces aimed at making embarrassing holiday encounters a thing of the past, while Google recently upgraded its translation software so that it is able to understand full sentences, instead of converting phrases word by word.
