With the Tokyo Olympics just around the corner next year and inbound demand expanding, various initiatives are underway across industries. Among them, the new model in the "World Speak" translator series, set to launch this autumn, is particularly noteworthy. We delve into the secrets behind the high-performance translation of King Jim's latest, long-awaited model.

The "World Speak" HYP10 is a high-performance portable translator supporting a record 155 languages worldwide.

Press the conversation button on the device and speak towards it; the translation results are displayed on the screen and can also be heard aloud. When translating online, it automatically selects the best option from multiple translation engines tailored to each language, enabling highly accurate translations.

Furthermore, it can translate 17 major languages such as English and Chinese offline, making it useful in a variety of locations.

It's also packed with other reassuring features. For example, pressing the "Magic Home Button" on the device and speaking the language or country name instantly selects the translation language, eliminating any need to rush. Actual translations are saved in the history, and frequently used phrases can be registered as favorites.

Communication methods can be selected from two types: wireless LAN and mobile data communication. For mobile data communication, it utilizes SoftBank's domestic-only SIM card, which ensures stable translation regardless of the time of day, and a global SIM card usable in 178 countries and regions. This ensures stable usage.

The lineup includes four models: the main unit only, a model with a global SIM (1GB), a model with a global SIM (3GB), and a model with a domestic-only SIM (unlimited data for 2 years).

In addition to the stationary conversational translator "World Speak" released in July 2019, the new "World Speak" HYP10 is a portable, carry-along type.

To eliminate language barriers in all situations and achieve smooth communication, and as a measure for future inbound tourism, there could be no more reliable translator.
