What is Image Translation?

Image Translation is the process of extracting text from images using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology, translating that text to another language using AI translation systems, and then overlaying the translated text back onto the original image. This creates a new image where the original text has been replaced with translated text while preserving the image's visual context, layout, and design elements.

Unlike traditional translation tools that only work with text, image translators handle text that is embedded within visual content. This makes them invaluable for translating photos of signs, menus, documents, screenshots, product labels, street signs, receipts, handwritten notes, and any other image containing text you need to understand in a different language.

When translating images from Korean to English, our tool ensures that all text in the image is accurately extracted using OCR, translated using advanced AI translation models, and then overlaid back onto the original image in the same position. This preserves the visual context while making the content understandable in English.
