Abstract

A method for dynamically detecting and converting a context-sensitive information in a first language and a first format to a second language and a second format that is understandable to an end user based on a user-specified setting is provided. The method may use a built-in camera of a computing device to dynamically detect and capture an image frame of context-sensitive information. The method may use Optical character recognition (OCR), as well as contextual information such as GPS data available from a mobile computing device, to automatically translate and reformat the context-sensitive information in real-time so a user may understand it unambiguously.
