bexwell Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Watching Keis One on YouTube yesterday, he was testing a piece of kit he'd been sent , translating ear pods. He and his pink haired (stunning) friend tested them, each having one earpod and talking in their own language (English and Thai) with amazing results. Not particularly expensive either.

forcebwithu Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Interesting, but price is a bit too rich for me to give it a try. Noticed the delivery date on their website uses a strange date format. Never seen anyone use MM/YYYY/DD before. Also you can get them for 3,490B on Lazada (link). Oops, just noticed that's for the M2, the M3 is listed on Lazada for 7,444B (link). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite happy with my, non-translating, 148B Bluetooth earbuds (link). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness they are just earpods (plus microphone). How the Timekettle System Works In Touch mode, two people share the M2 translation earbuds. I have selected an online translation of English and French for this example. As the English speaker talks, his words are transferred via Bluetooth from the earbud to his phone. Then they are sent to a Timekettle server. As the server receives the transmission, it converts it to English text and sends this back to the phone. Once a sentence has been completed, the server's algorithm determines whether it is a statement or a question and capitalizes its first letter if it finds a name. Context is also checked, resulting in the replacement of words that might have been mispronounced with those that make more logical sense. This edited text is sent back to the phone. At the same time, the edited version is translated into French and transmitted back to the phone as text. Once the entire sentence is revealed on the phone's screen, it is converted to voice and transferred to the second earbud via Bluetooth. When the French-speaking participant replies, the above operations are repeated, translating from French to English. https://turbofuture.com/consumer-electronics/Review-of-the-Timekettle-M2-Language-Translator-Device#gid=ci029d294650052613&pid=review-of-the-timekettle-m2-language-translator-device-MTg4MzI5NTk1NzYwNzQ3NzM5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
