Not long ago, some Goggles with Augmented Reality have been presented that help communication between two people who speak different languages. The glasses show on their lenses the translation of what the other person says, so that both people can "talk" to each other.

Google has been offering a translation service for a long time now, and it's called Google Translate. What it does is translate a text from one language to another almost instantaneously, and I have to admit that it does it quite well. Many people use it to get translations of the texts they want.

Also on Android, it offers an application to translate some texts into other languages that can allow someone to communicate simple ideas into other languages. And that is quite useful when you are going on a trip.

Pero la “comunicación” entre dos personas es algo más complejo y más rico. Tiene que ver con lo que oímos y con lo que vemos, y quizás esa sea la razón  de Google para ofrecer unas gafas que mejoren la comunicación entre las personas.

It is more than likely that the system initially has some operating problems, but I am convinced that in a short time they will be corrected and communication between people will improve.

Breaking down language barriers helps people feel closer to each other, and it's a great way to make us feel less different from each other and improve our levels of cooperation.

In the not too distant future it would not be very difficult for the translation to be communicated orally through a headset or similar. Time will tell.

But for me, this is a moment to thank Goggle for the effort made to improve communication and understanding between people. Thanks.
