Removing the Language Barrier
With Interact-AS, individuals who are Hard-of-Hearing instantly see
a transcript of what others are saying, and people that are Deaf can
directly communicate with other people that do not know sign
language. What about the world traveler, or if you have co-workers
that do not understand English? Interact-AS is your answer. Simply
add one of Interact-AS’s optional translation modules and whatever
you write, type or speak in English is immediately translated and
voiced out in a second language. When someone says, writes or
types something in a foreign language, it’s translated and spoken and
displayed in English. Only Interact-AS allows you to communicate
with others in so many multiple languages.
Translation of Anything
Other multi-lingual translators limit you to
using a fixed set of phrases that some
committee has decided to include with the
product. With Interact-AS’s language
modules there are no boundaries, no
constraints, no limited
number of phrases.
Words you type or
write, plus
Any phrase you enter

Anything said in the foreign language will be

your own vocabulary such as acronyms or
proper nouns. Instant translation, anytime,
anywhere and with these modules, in
multiple languages.

written in the foreign
language are displayed here
