The always-connected device uses a “smart” camera to translate Chinese text into English almost instantly, and gain product information and reviews when hovering over a toy sale.

The device is capable of:
- Image-to-text optical character recognition and translation (name of the venue and menu)
- Speech Translation (language pack pulled based on GPS)
- Pulls restaurant information and reviews after recognizing the logo / location
