In the future, the entire world will be one big, happy family. There'll be no more fighting, unlimited trade, and free beer for everybody. There's just one thing holding us all back: we can't speak to each other. Sure, there's Google Translate, but who wants to go awkwardly typing in phrases every time you want to get your flirt on?
One of the answers to this problem is already here, and it's so hi-tech you can hardly believe your eyes. Real time visual translations, in which you simply hold your phone over the text to be translated, and the words come up in a language of your choice. When we first saw this tech, the first word that came to mind was "neat". But this, at the very least, deserves a "rad".
