In addition, the translator from Baidu to distribute wifi, as it will be equipped with connectivity to the Internet. Designated translator also does not take a lot, and will weigh only about 150 grams.

Baidu is not planning to sell only translators, but also to give the users of for hire — reasonable offer for those who come to China on a business trip, but the language does not know. Sale and rental of devices will start first in China, but later Baidu is going to conquer the Japanese market. The number of languages supported is still unknown, as well as price.
