![Image of googleplay](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/fhR9eIkBWnbDZJQXRGRbRndG9b80ZwxzjL19DBqddH4AAZS-y3huZy7w10bk8WxB1JI=w200)

**Try beta release:** https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.livetranslator

## Overview

A simple and small app that translates in real time what you see from your mobile.

Augmented reality is an overlay of content on the real world, it means to add enhancements to the existing reality in order to make it more meaningful.

With the help of advanced Google Cloud technology such as Cloud Vision, the information and the environment surrounding can become interactive.

It is inspired from [Google's "Giorgio Cam" AI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKeI63VSpto) and [react-native-camera-translator](https://github.com/DjordjePetrovic/react-native-camera-translator) experiments.

For a thorough discussion, please read the following [blog post](https://blog.hellojs.org/an-augmented-reality-experiment-in-react-native-fc473f6c1b5c) about it.

## Selecting a language.
I created the language selector using snack expo using Animated and PanResponder from react native.

## Rotating the dialog

I am also using the mobile accelerometer to create an animated transition in order to improve the user experience when rotating the mobile.

For further information look into [getting started](https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/getting-started) docs.

* Reminder: After enabling the Google Cloud API, click the Go to Credentials button to set up your Cloud Translation API credentials.

* Finally, add the key in the package.json file of the project

## Contribute!! :)

The following improvements and PR could be accepted:

* Improve error handler and encoding
* Move from REST to Google Cloud Translator API. https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/apis?hl=es-419
