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.

The doctoral student envisions a day when people have implants in their faces and throats to be able to speak foreign languages.
