Entrepreneurial Idea: "There's an app for that." Or so they say, but
there's no app for changing the language interface on an Android phone.
We are forced to go with an Iphone or a weird unresponsive smartphone to
get the language setting we want. Android is getting better and better
every passing day, but they are still losing out on a lot of customers
because of no option to change the language setting like one can do on
an Iphone. My idea is for an app that can do that. The day we can all
have ANY phone of our choice with the language we understand will be the
day cellular devices take a great leap into the future.
So I've been thinking. Perhaps after successfully making a program that can convert the internal language of a cell phone we can expand outward, literally. What I mean by this is to also translate whole passages and other materials outside of the cellphone. How cool would it be if a person just had to point their camera at something and hit the translate button or translate texts in other languages to their own? This is where Cloud Computing may come in handy. After something is translated by our program and you wanted to keep the translation (because of course it would be an awesome translation) instead of it taking up memory on your phone you could save it to our cloud and access it from anywhere in the world.
Oh! Another idea! Speech for the translated material! How cool would that be? Think about it, if you were on the streets of a foreign country and you couldn't pronounce the word your cellphone could do it for you and of course sound like the actual natives. Want to keep that conversation also for future use? No problem that can be done. If we use things like Lossy Compression (take the sounds that the human ear cannot hear and toss it-for lack of a better word) then the file that you save onto the cloud or your cellphone won't take up as much space. You will have more space for other things. Don't worry the file even after being compressed will still sound good. Using this you can maybe use it to practice your actual conversation skills.
The idea just keeps expanding because of the needs of society these days. We just want to make this product as consumer friendly as possible. The improvements that can be made to this app to make it easier for anyone to use seems endless. The only limitation for improvements is how far technology can take us. Hopefully one day this idea will come to light and the world will be more connected through mutual understanding of each others' language.
