Ukrainian police is equipped with electronic translators

Ukrainian police has purchased almost 1500 electronic voice translators to facilitate communication of police officers with the Euro 2012 guests, the Head of the Public Safety Department of the Home Ministry of Ukraine Serhiy Pohotov informed.

He stated that currently the devices are being distributed among the subunits.

The work of one of these Russian-English translators was demonstrated to the press. A police officer enters a text in Russian or English into a speechguard and in a few seconds he gets translation. Such an innovation is aimed to simplify the communication between law enforcement officers and Euro 2012 guests.
