Real time translation of Web videos


Ortsbo a Canadian startup company has released its Live & Global platform at CES 2012 in Las Vegas. This new product can do real time translation of videos in 53 languages including Spanish, French, Yiddish, Chinese, Arabic and Hebrew. One of the principal markets for the product is real time closed captioning of international corporate events.
In a demo at the conference the application translated online chat with participants from 92 countries. Its potential application includes translating Google’s YouTube videos and Skype conversations. Ortsbo has created several desktop and smartphone based instantaneous translation packages which form bulk of its revenues.
