Abstract: The Zero User Interface (UI)-based automatic speech translation system and method can solve problems such as the procedural inconvenience of inputting speech signals and the malfunction of speech recognition due to crosstalk when users who speak difference languages have a face-to-face conversation. The system includes an automatic speech translation server, speaker terminals and a counterpart terminal. The automatic speech translation server selects a speech signal of a speaker among multiple speech signals received from speaker terminals connected to an automatic speech translation service and transmits a result of translating the speech signal of the speaker into a target language to a counterpart terminal.

Abstract: A seat for a vehicle having a fold-and-dive function is proposed. When a seatback is rotated forwards and folded, a seat cushion is moved down, so the fold-and-dive function of the seat is realized. When a full-flat mode is realized by the reclining operation of the seatback, a rear end of the seat cushion is moved up, so a step between the seat cushion and the seatback can be significantly reduced or eliminated. Furthermore, a front link connecting a back cushion interlocking frame and a cushion fixing bracket to perform the fold-and-dive function is installed to have directivity where it is inclined rearwards, thus preventing a submarine phenomenon of the seat in the event of a forward collision.
