Users are faced with the need to translate text from photos online. Situations can be different: there is text in a photograph that needs to be extracted from the image and translated into another language, there is an image of a document in a foreign language, text from the picture needs to be translated, etc.
You can use text recognition programs that use OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to extract text from images. Then, the text extracted from the photo can be translated using a translator. If original image good quality, then in most cases free online services for text recognition are suitable.
In this case, the entire operation takes place in two stages: first, text recognition occurs in a program or online service, and then the text is translated using an online translator or an application installed on the computer. You can, of course, copy text from a photo manually, but this is not always justified.
Is there a way to combine two technologies in one place: immediately recognize and transfer a test from a photograph online? Unlike mobile applications(we'll talk about them later in the article), choice for users desktop computers practically none. But, nevertheless, I found two options for how to translate text from an image online in one place, without the help of programs and other services.
An online photo translator will recognize the text in the image and then translate it into desired language.
When translating from images online, pay attention to some points:
- the quality of text recognition depends on the quality of the original image;
- In order for the service to open the picture without problems, the image must be saved in a common format (JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, etc.);
- if possible, check the extracted text to eliminate recognition errors;
- The text is translated using machine translation, so the translation may not be perfect.
We will use Yandex Translator and online service Free Online OCR, which has translation functionality for text extracted from a photograph. You can use these services to translate from English into Russian, or use other language pairs of supported languages.
Available to users on mobile devices different ways for translation from photographs. In this article we will look at applications Google Translate, Yandex Translator, Microsoft Translator.
To use applications for translation from photos on mobile phones, two prerequisites must be met: the presence of a camera on the device, which is used to capture images for translation, and an Internet connection for text recognition on the remote translator server.
Yandex Translator for translation from pictures
Yandex.Translator integrates OCR optical character recognition technology, with which text is extracted from photographs. Then, using Yandex Translator technologies, the extracted text is translated into the selected language.
Go through the following steps sequentially:
- Sign in Yandex Translator to the “Pictures” tab.
- Select language source text. To do this, click on the name of the language (displayed by default English language). If you don't know what language is in the image, the translator will start auto-detection of the language.
- Select the language to translate. By default, the Russian language is selected. To change the language, click on the language name and select another supported language.
- Select a file on your computer or drag a picture into the online translator window.
- After Yandex Translator recognizes the text from the photo, click “Open in Translator”.
- Two fields will open in the translator window: one with text in a foreign language (in in this case in English), another with translation into Russian (or another supported language).
If the photo was of poor quality, it makes sense to check the recognition quality. Compare the translated text with the original in the picture, correct any errors found.
You can change the translation in Yandex Translator. To do this, turn on the switch " New technology translation." The translation is carried out simultaneously neural network and statistical model. The algorithm automatically selects best option translation.
Copy the translated text into a text editor. Edit if necessary machine translation, correct errors.

Reviews about us
I had to travel through several countries for work in one week - Laos, Thailand, Malaysia, Burma, Vietnam, Cambodia. I bought a x30maxi translator. I communicated voice to voice in these countries in local languages via the Internet, for which I did not have to pay. I liked that this model has a feature - the ability to use 100 languages for voice translation via the already paid Internet.
I bought the HTmaxi20 translator from this store two months ago. He's with maximum number languages and a very loud sound. Which is convenient, I even swam underwater with it and in general it is also shockproof. I especially liked that you can use it to measure blood pressure, pulse, and more. Incoming calls in all countries of the world are free, without a subscription fee. And one more thing cool feature, that you can talk on Viber for an unlimited time, but you only pay 20 rubles for the connection, and you don’t pay for the Internet. The thing is super, I advise you to buy it.
I bought a translator online in another store, they brought it, I checked the characteristics - RAM, camera, etc. and there was a mismatch, the camera instead of 13 was 5, the RAM instead of 2GB was 1GB in reality... Somehow I returned it, my nerves were frayed. After that, before purchasing a translator, I decided to take the characteristics more seriously. In the store, smart language devices checked all the characteristics in the maxi translator in the settings and using special program. All characteristics corresponded to those stated. I am satisfied with the purchased translator, I recommend this store to everyone.
I am very weak in technology and was afraid that I would not be able to master it, but after the purchase I was assigned a personal consultant, Sivara, who was very kind and spent a long time telling me over a toll-free phone everything that I did not understand. Such a service is very rare when all customers are assigned a personal consultant, Thanks a lot the store for this.
It was necessary to go to China. However there big problems with the Internet and very few people know foreign languages. Everything is written everywhere Chinese. The X30maxi translator that I purchased from this store helped a lot. It was much easier to navigate with a translator, because... I used it to photograph inscriptions from afar, menus in a restaurant, and he translated and voiced them, and no internet was required.
I travel a lot as a tourist and for work. I often had to hire translators, which cost a pretty penny. I contacted the store Smart language devices, excellent consultants, they understood all my problems, competent consultants installed a lot additional programs according to my individual order. For half a year now, he has become my indispensable assistant everywhere, because... He good translator in many languages without the Internet in almost all countries of the world, installed navigation maps in Russian, an excellent camera and video camera.
I bought a translator to communicate in Thailand because... my daughter lives there. I looked everywhere for Thai without the Internet, but they told me that Thai language You can’t live without the Internet, I couldn’t find it anywhere. Only in this store they were able to help me; I bought a translator on which a set of various programs was installed that helped me communicate in Thailand without the Internet. The translator was very helpful.
I first bought the translator from another store. After 3 days of use I was disappointed. The translation is very poor quality, it translates some nonsense every now and then, the sound is very quiet. I decided to hand it over before it was too late. I bought HTMaxi20 from this store and was pleased. Good translation, loud sound, translates many languages without the Internet, excellent 13MP camera for photo translation, removes signs from afar and translates by voice without the Internet. Thank you very pleased!
I bought a translator from this store and am very pleased. Because when I compared with other stores, I found out that in all respects the translators of this store are better than those of others. The characteristics are better, the prices are lower, the number of languages without Internet is greater, the quality and quantity of training programs. Unlike others, the store has been operating for a long time, which is an important factor when choosing, because... Nowadays, there are a lot of young companies that have no work experience.
