Word Lens

Impressive iPhone App of the Day: After 2-1/2 years of development, Quest Visual has finally launched “Word Lens,” an iPhone app capable of translating signs in real-time.

QuestVisual founder Otavio Good explains:

It tries to find out what the letters are and then looks in the dictionary. Then it draws the words back on the screen in translation. The translation isn’t perfect, but it gets the point across.

This is fucking amazing!

Make sure to check out this supplemental video in which Kreylos compares the sizes of 3D objects to their real counterparts to show that they match.

NUKE IT FROM ORBIT of the Day: Actroid-F, an ultra-realistic android developed by Japanese roboticist Kokoro, was publicly unveiled in Tokyo this week.

With too-humanoid-for-comfort facial expressions, and her assigned role as inpatient caretaker (presumably to provide comfort and security), Actroid-F is proof positive of our impending demise.
