Abstract

This paper describes a voice interface real-time cross-lingual translation system designed to fulfill short communication needs between speakers of different languages. Through our design method, three incremental prototypes were developed. The interaction model was applied to real situations in prototype validation tests using taxi drivers and tourists.
