IMAGE TRANSLATION / NOMAD

Understand the words around you.

See something you can't read? Nomad helps turn text captured in images into understandable language.

A menu, street sign or instruction label can become a barrier when it's written in an unfamiliar language. With Nomad's image translation feature, you can capture text with your camera and read the translated result. It's an easy companion for travel, study and everyday life.

What you can do

From a photo to clearer meaning

Point your camera at visible written text, capture the image and let Nomad process it. Computer vision helps recognize words in the picture while AI translation helps communicate their meaning in another language.

Useful for everyday discoveries

Image translation can help you understand restaurant menus, transit signs, notices and other written information. For the best results, photograph text in focus, with enough light and without covering important words.

Know when to double-check

Recognition can be less reliable with handwriting, tiny text, low contrast or complex layouts. Always verify critical medical, legal or safety instructions with a qualified professional.
