<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve a translation device that can improve a character recognition rate and also reduce burden of a user to thereby enhance usefulness. <P>SOLUTION: An image processing unit 30 corrects parallax in still image data on the basis of the distance to a subject measured by a photographing unit 10. Then, a character string is extracted from the still image data after the correction. When having failed in the extraction, the image processing such as edge enhancement and gradation correction is applied to the still image data, and character extraction is performed again. A language processing unit 40 transmits the character string extracted by the image processing unit 30 to a translation engine 60. The translation engine 60 retrieves the translated word of the character string, which is input from the language processing unit 40, using the translation engine 60 and returns the word to the language processing unit 40. The language processing unit 40 displays the word, which is returned from the translation engine 60, on a display unit 70. Then, the optical image of the word is projected on a holographic optical element and led to the eye of a user by diffraction reflection. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
