Japan is the number one country in the technology industry, but that has its pros and cons, not everything they launch on the market is going to be really useful, it would be impossible, to be honest, we are surrounded by technologically useless things. However, this megaphone can come in handy if you are a police officer and need to stop a demonstration in a foreign country. This megaphone that we present to you today is the latest Panasonic eccentricity, the Japanese brand that has devised a way to translate our voice in real time, and why not, by increasing the volume of passage.
This megaphone instantly translates audio content into multiple languages at the same time. The idea was born as a method to communicate with the increasingly millions of tourists who arrive in Japan and thus be able to respond more immediately to a possible immediate movement. Of course, in airports for example it will be very useful, although perhaps improving the education system is a more practical solution, Although we do not believe it, in Japan they have had many problems with English for years, to such an extent that it is causing little global expansion of their specialists in many areas due to the language barrier.
The device is not perfect, you can imagine it, it has only 300 stored set phrases that it is capable of interpreting, although it will receive updates through the internet and its response catalog will be expanded The megaphone will go on sale for a monthly subscription of $ 183 per month, although they intend to launch a commercial model for the year 2018. In short, a peculiar product that could satisfy many event hostesses or security officers, however, it seems like a patch to a language barrier that should (we should) be solving in full XXI century.
