In the science-fiction novel “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” by Douglas Adams, the unique alien innovation of the “Babel Fish” inspired Tian to create his translation technology. The Babel Fish automatically translates alien speech into a language the user can understand when it crawls into their ear.
Tian and his team aimed to revolutionize communication with their new device, X1 translation technology. With earpieces that connect to a central device as well as to other devices for networking, individuals from different countries can communicate effortlessly in their own language.
The standalone device is easily activated for seamless translation between languages, with no need for slow processes like turning on a phone or opening an app and reading out text translations. This allows for casual conversations to flow smoothly without any barriers of language or culture.
