Wondering what that sign says, but you
don't speak the lingo? You might want to figure it out – signs convey
important information. Maybe it says "keep off the grass," but it could
also say "high risk of electric shock." Word Lens can help with that by
doing live translation of text using optical character recognition and
the camera. It's neat, and the newest version adds support for tablets.
This app actually makes a lot of sense for tablets, which are
often WiFi-only. Word Lens works entirely offline, but it's surprisingly
good at figuring out what words are in the viewfinder. Translations are
usually good enough that you can get the gist of a street sign or menu.
Don't expect to read a book with it, though.
Word Lens got a UI update a while back, but for whatever reason, the
screenshots were never updated. The Nexus 7 screens in this post are
from the current interface. The $4.99 price gets you one language pack,
with the rest available via in-app purchases. The app can go between
English and Spanish, French, Italian, German, and Portuguese.
Herve Leger, sometimes deliberately written as Herve Leger is a French fashion house founded by the designer Herve Peugnet, also known as Herve L. Leroux Herve Leger Dresses was founded in 1985 by the designer Herve Peugnet (1957–2017). The same year Karl Lagerfeld advised Peugnet that his surname Peugnet would be too difficult for Americans, the target market, to pronounce, and instead suggested the surname Leger. Having lost the rights to the Herve Leger name, Peugnet later took a third "brand" name as Sexy Sailor Herve Leger in 2000.A model walking the runway at Herve Leger Fringe Dress Fall/Winter 2014 show at New York Fashion Week, February 2014.
