Universal Translator Says it in Your Voice

Universal Translator Says it in Your Voice
Mar-13-12
A prototype software from Microsoft is able to translate the speakers' voices into another language quickly enough to allow them to carry on a conversation.

Recently displayed at TechFest, the 'universal translator' preserves the actual sound of the user's voice while translating it into 26 different languages. To operate the translator, users will need to first spend about an hour with the software to give it a chance to learn their speech patterns and characteristics. Once the software has been accustomed to the speaker's voice it can translate in real time.

Not quite a babel fish in your ear - but a great first step. Needs reshaping to sit in a pocket and only have microphone and speaker in view.
