I'll have the 큰 페퍼로니 피자

Imagine being able to walk into a restaurant anywhere in the world, pick up the menu and place your order, all while not being able to understand the language, but still comprehending what you will be eating. NTT Docomo, a Japanese technology company, is working on a wearable computer similar to Google Glass that will let you do this, and more. It's reminiscent of the babelfish of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy fame--though not quite up to that standard, yet. Devices that can translate text on the fly will be incredibly useful. WHO representatives, students studying abroad, international businessmen, historians, electronic device repairmen--anyone who often sees text written in a foreign language would find the ability of immediate benefit. This is world-expanding. I want one. I want to order novels and books in languages I would never have the time to learn, and be able to read them without issue. I want to be able to travel to China or Russia, and be able to get news directly from the local newspapers. There is such a large and immediate user base for something like this that I'm surprised it hasn't already been perfected--and the translation feature is only one of its uses. I'm sure Google is working on a translation app for Google Glass as well. Now we just need to get them to add on-the-fly audio translation.
