Translation device and translation system
First Claim
1. A translation device for performing translation into a set translation language, the translation device comprising:
- an input device for inputting an input sentence, the input device including a microphone;
a translation language setting processor for (i) regularly determining whether a change in a position of the translation device has occurred and (ii) when a change in the position of the translation device is determined, setting the translation language from among used languages of speakers near the translation device based on located language information and position information of the translation device; and
an output device for outputting an output sentence obtained by translating the input sentence into the translation language set by the translation language setting processor, the output device including a speaker,wherein the located language information includes a predetermined location of each of a plurality of speakers and a used language of the each of the plurality of speakers.

Abstract
There are included an input unit for inputting an input sentence, and an output unit for outputting an output sentence obtained by translating the input sentence into a translation language. The translation language is set based on located language information and position information of a translation device. The located language information includes a predetermined location of each of a plurality of speakers and a used language of each of the plurality of speakers. Accordingly, the translation language, which is a translation target, may be set from a plurality of languages while reducing the operation burden on a user.

7. A translation system comprising:
-
a translation device for performing translation into a set translation language; and a control device including a translation language setting processor for (i) regularly determining whether a change in a position of the translation device has occurred and (ii) when a change in the position of the translation device is determined, setting the translation language from among used languages of speakers near the translation device based on located language information and position information of the translation device, wherein the translation device includes an input device for inputting an input sentence the input device including a microphone, and an output device for outputting an output sentence obtained by translating the input sentence into the translation language set by the translation language setting processor, the output device including a speaker, wherein the control device detects the position information of the translation device, and transmits information identifying the translation language to the translation device, and wherein the located language information includes a predetermined location of each of a plurality of speakers and a used language of the each of the plurality of speakers. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A translation system comprising:
-
an input device for inputting an input sentence, the input device including a microphone; a translation device including an output device for outputting an output sentence, the output device including a speaker, a translation language setting processor for (i) regularly determining whether a change in a position of the translation device has occurred and (ii) when a change in the position of the translation device is determined, setting a translation language from among used languages of speakers near the translation device based on located language information and position information of the translation device; and a translator for translating the input sentence into the translation language set by the translation language setting processor to obtain the output sentence; and wherein the translation system further includes a recorder for recording located language information including a location of each of a plurality of speakers and a used language of the each of the plurality of speakers, and a position detector for detecting position information of the translation device, wherein the translation system sets the translation language for the translation device based on the located language information and the position information of the translation device, wherein the translator translates the input sentence for the translation device into the output sentence for the translation device based on the translation language for the translation device, and wherein the output device of the translation device outputs the output sentence for the translation device. - View Dependent Claims (17)
