Neural Machine Translations

Google is also combining NMT (neural machine translations ) with their Translate's instant camera. In fact, the search giant already applied this technology in Google's Lens. NMT is believed to help reduce the errors in translation by 55-85% in some certain pairs of languages. Besides, NMT can work without or with WiFi, but it would be more effective when users use an internet connection.

There will be also an autodetect feature that would be a great help for backpackers. In the new version of the app, just choose "Detect language" as the source, then the camera will auto-translate the sign's text into the target language.

Google Translate
Google also fixes some performance issues of the app with these updates.

The new instant camera of Google Translate has been available to 1% of users since July 10, and all other users can experience this feature in the later weeks.
