Re: [Announce] MIR Translator - Translate text captured by the Nokia N900 mobile camera

Hi all,

I have been quite busy with my day job for some time now and have virtually no time to maintain this project. I have had to shut down the EC2 server that the service was running on. The...

Re: [Announce] MIR Translator - Translate text captured by the Nokia N900 mobile camera

Thanks for the feedback. It's probably a bug/typo in the definitions used for Google translate. I'll try to fix it.

Re: [Announce] MIR Translator - Translate text captured by the Nokia N900 mobile camera

Yes, I will add it! I was waiting for Hindi recognition (as opposed to the destination language) to be supported. It seems like it technically is, but I haven't been able to get it to work. Next...

Re: [Announce] MIR Translator - Translate text captured by the Nokia N900 mobile camera

Japa-fi,

Re: [Announce] MIR Translator - Translate text captured by the Nokia N900 mobile camera

Yes, this is a known issue I haven't been able to resolve. For now you can click inside the window and use the keyboard arrow keys to scroll up or down. Same with highlighting: use the shift key.

Re: [Announce] MIR Translator - Translate text captured by the Nokia N900 mobile camera

Thanks for the feedback. Just uploaded a fix for crashing on sending without an internet connection. The manual correction mode might still be a bit rough, especially for crops that extend beyond...

Re: [Announce] MIR Translator - Translate text captured by the Nokia N900 mobile camera

Implemented your suggestion.

Also fixed the problem with the application breaking the normal camera app after use.

New version is uploaded.

rotoflex, that's a good idea. I actually thought of that myself and am going to get around to it in the next few iterations.

Re: [Announce] MIR Translator - Translate text captured by the Nokia N900 mobile camera

As far as recognition, It will take some work, though not overly much, to make the app run completely locally. It might be ~2-3MB per language, so around 90MB total, plus an additional 150MB or so...
