During the online meeting, the participants focused on many topics related to the brain and memory \u2014 one of them was speech. This topic was introduced from several perspectives. First, the talk focused on the part of the brain, where the speech originates. Second, the conference participants asked the following question: how to take care of speech and how to save speech in case of brain damage. And last, but not least, the topic of speech was examined from the perspective of learning foreign languages.<\/p>\r\n<p>There was also a discussion about speech and technology and that\u2019s where our <a href=\"https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/translators\/vasco-translator-m3\">voice translators<\/a> were mentioned. Then, we had an opportunity to present our company and our devices.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_presentation_of_our_company\"><\/span>The presentation of our company<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>The presentation of <a href='https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/'>Vasco Electronics<\/a> concerned the topics such as the company\u2019s structure, history and products. For instance, one slide of our presentation displayed a complete timeline of the <a href='https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/features\/translate-voice'>voice translators<\/a> we create \u2014 from the very first device that <a href=\"https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/translators\/\">translates voice<\/a> released in 2013, to the flagship Vasco Translator M3, released in 2020.<\/p>\r\n<p>We also talked about the significant moments in the history of <a href='https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/'>Vasco Electronics<\/a>. For instance, we mentioned the openings of online stores in various countries and entering new markets, such as Japan. But, what\u2019s also important is that we showcased what makes us truly special and unique in comparison to other <a href='https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/features\/translate-voice'>voice translator<\/a> producers.<\/p>\r\n<p>We are the only <a href='https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/translators\/'>electronic translator<\/a> provided that offers free, lifetime and unlimited internet access for the purpose of translation, which runs in as many as 200 countries. Other producers put a limit on a SIM card with the internet access, meaning that after reaching the limit, it is necessary to buy a data package. Some producers don\u2019t provide internet access for translation at all. The internet access is crucial when it comes to using either a translator app or a <a href='https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/features\/translate-voice'>voice translator<\/a> device. Having to use your own data means additional or hidden costs \u2014 no such thing with Vasco Translators.<\/p>\r\n<p>What\u2019s also important is that our devices work with as many as 10 translation engines, as opposed to other devices or translator apps which only have 1. Having multiple translation engines means, in our case, that the device chooses that one engine which provides the best translation for a given language pair \u2014 for instance, when translating from English to Spanish or from Arabic to Japanese. This is a significant feature, as it ensures that the translation accuracy is very high (96%, as a matter of fact) \u2014 it\u2019s especially important in emergency situations, when there\u2019s absolutely no room for misunderstandings.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"btn btn-default\" href=\"https:\/\/vasco-translator.com\/translators\/vasco-translator-v4\">Speak More Languages Now<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>What is more, Vasco translators provide instant translations to and from over 70 languages, offering a native-speaker-like pronunciation.
