Throat Whisperer Device

This could be the prototype of “Alien-nation’s” whisperer device as “they” may use brain wave for communications right now…

Tell me if this whisperer device should translate the “F” word as well?

Whisper in mandarin and the words come out in English . Szu-Chen Stan Jou, at Carnegie Mellon University, has developed a throat-whisperer device that can translate sentences in a language into another on the spot.

The researcher recently demoed his gadget. 11 electrodes attached to his face and neck detected muscle movements, enabling a computer program to figure out what he was saying and then translated from Jou’s native Mandarin Chinese into English and Spanish.
