Google purchases World Lens: What it does  instantly translate printed words with your phone's camera! Word Lens gives you translation on the go: - NO NETWORK required - results appear immediately on your video screen when you need it, anywhere in the world. - Easy to use, like the regular camera - Look up translations by typing them in, or clicking on a word. Available language pairs: +English ⇆ Russian + English ⇆ Spanish + English ⇆ French + English ⇆ Italian + English ⇆ German + English ⇆ Portuguese Notes for getting the best quality out of your translations: - Best used on clearly printed text (e.g. signs, menus) - DOES NOT recognize handwriting or stylized fonts - It's not perfect, but you can get the general meaning! - Keep text in focus by holding it at least one hand-length away and tap-to-focus if autofocus is struggling. - Turn on the flashlight (if available on your device) - Zoom in (if available on your device) YouTub
