  • Patent number: 7580828
    Abstract: A computer translation system is disclosed generally comprising a monitor displaying a pair of adjacent columns that have parallel scrolling means. The columns are divided horizontally to form at least two pairs of parallel scrolling fields, including a main pair of fields and a second pair located above the main pair. The main pair includes a translation field for text that is to be translated and a correction field for the translated text where an operator can check and correct this translated text. The second pair of scrolling fields includes first and second accumulating fields for progressively receiving and displaying the text from the translation field and the correction field, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20090106017
    Abstract: Computerised automatic translation method characterised by the use of multi-tasking with two processors or a dual core that duplicates the system into two twins, one becoming server of the other and instructing the first to send a remaining part that is less than half to the second while the first begins the translation of the first part to then, on completion of its work, pick up the text translated by the second and joint it to the first part that has already been translated.

  • Publication number: 20080288240
    Abstract: A translation system of the type with a connecting structure with intercommunicating net/internet:, whose net includes a plurality of interconnected servers, includes: at least one net-communicator microprocessor user-apparatus for net communication which includes a connection to the net and/or via net/internet, and at least one net-service-server connected to the intercommunicating net/internet including an indefinite number of servers. The net service-server includes or connects to at least one netservice database. The system also includes a plurality of translator computers and/or translator-servers including at least one automatic translation system inside for a plurality of languages in various combinations.

  • Patent number: 6937974
    Abstract: An interactive paper translation using alternate dictionaries includes: a first storage for storing words and strings of more words with respective correct translations so that it forms a dictionary of words and sentences or sentence portions; a second receiver for receiving a text to be translated; a third storage for storing the translated text in the second screen field; and a fourth searcher for searching in progression for the words of the text to be translated. The method compares translated words with the words of the first storage to obtain a progressive translation and forms a completely automatic translation or an interactive translation or vice versa, before beginning the translation. During the option of interactive translation, there are further displays and windows. The method may also involve a scanner integrated with OCR for direct loading of the sheets to be translated.

  • Patent number: 6894681
    Abstract: A character input device controlled by microprocessor providing: the replacement of the writing alphanumeric keyboard, with an auto-writing device including a movement sensor according to the X, Y coordinates with respect to a surface associate/able to said microprocessor that controls a monitor/screen, in which: with vertical or predominately vertical movements according to the “Y” ordinates, allow changing, in scrolling a way, the alphanumeric characters of interest, so that, when the movement stops or changes direction the desired alphanumeric character remains on the screen; with horizontal or predominantly horizontal movement, according to the abscissas “X” axis, in the sense of advancing writing, at least the addition of said alphanumeric characters can be operated. Cancellation is made with a backwards movement. The system is useful for writing on cellular phones, palmtops, TV and computers, without keyboard or alternatively to it.

  • Publication number: 20030040900
    Abstract: A computer translation system having viewing means on monitor of a translation-interface involving a couple of text-columns, wherein each text-column includes parallel scrolling field means, characterized in that said couple of text-columns is divisible horizontally, to realize at least two couples of parallel scrolling fields, forming at least temporarily a “+”-structure in which, one pair of scrolling fields is below for translation and correction after translation, forming a couple of main translation and correction fields (Fl, B-U) and the second pair is over these for accumulation of what translated checked and corrected, forming a couple of accumulating fields (A1,U/Z) and wherein, said translation system has transfer means (Memline) to progressively transfer the couples of top paragraphs of said main translation and correction fields (F1, Z) to said accumulating fields (A1, Z).

  • Publication number: 20020060699
    Abstract: A character input device controlled by microprocessor providing: the replacement of the writing alphanumeric keyboard, with an auto-writing device (MK) including a movement sensor according to the X, Y coordinates with respect to a surface associate/able to said microprocessor that controls a monitor/screen (21), in which: with vertical or predominately vertical movements according to the “Y” ordinates, allow changing, in scrolling a way, the alphanumeric characters of interest, so that, when the movement stops or changes direction the desired alphanumeric character remains on the screen; with horizontal or predominantly horizontal movement, according to the abscissas “X” axis, in the sense of advancing writing, at least the addition of said alphanumeric characters can be operated. Cancellation is made with a backwards movement. The system is useful for writing on cellular phones, palmtops, TV and computers, without keyboard or alternatively to it.
