NCS Product Synopsis
©NCSX:
Talkman is a piece of translation software which
uses a goofy bird named Max as the conversion applet
interface. The languages supported are: English,
Mandarin Chinese,
Korean, and Japanese. The menus may be changed
to any of the supported languages and translations
may be performed in any direction. For example,
English to Mandarin, Mandarin to Japanese, Korean to
English, etc.
To use the software as an English speaking person to converse with
a Japanese person, speak in English into the plug-in
microphone (included) and Max will translate the
dialogue into Japanese and say it to the person
you're trying to communicate with. Once Max has
spoken, the microphone will pick up the reply from
the Japanese speaking person and Max will once again
translate the spoken Japanese words into English. In
essence, Max is a fairly adept interpreter who can
handle 3,000 general phrases such as "Where is the train"
but "Show me the way to San Jose" will stump it.
In addition to the voice recognition/translation application, the
Talkman software includes a rudimentary language
tutor, a measurement conversion utility, an alarm
clock and an note
recorder for reciting memos.
Every copy of the game includes a slim
microphone which plugs into the USB port of the PSP.
There's a little dial on the left side of the mic
which adjusts the audio level (pickup) for voices.
Unless someone is speaking very softly, we found
that the midrange setting worked well but in crowd
situations with loud background noise, the higher
audio level was necessary. ©NCSX
